This was before I guessed that the missing fonts were indeed the first problem - and before the situation where the fonts are unuseably big. Could this be alleviated by printing an error saying which packages to install to make yast2 work, instead of printing a stack trace? Perhaps the real problem is with the pattern. Without desktop but with X implies that X programs can be run via a remote connection, e.g. ssh. Obviously that doesn't need an X server, even less a desktop, but X apps need to run. (And "with X" doesn't really say whether an X server is included or whether that refers only to X apps.) It is also not an unusual or weird system, it is very common to set up Linux systems without desktop since on a server in the corner that is not needed, but having X apps available is IMHO opinion required to stay up with the competition from France, South Africa, or Redmond. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
