After the small window "Getting available server list..." the program aborts with: /sbin/yast: line 149: 20773 Aborted /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/y2base $module "$@" ncurses Anybody have any idea what's wrong? I have tried: - reinstall all yast packages - install the update available yast2-config-online-update.rpm The logfiles in /var/log/y2* don't provide much usefull information. Any help would be greatly apreciated!
