Hanssen 2009-09-12 13:00:44 MDT --- The same confusing issue in 11.2 M7 i686 and x86_64 (should get higher priority?) YaST2 Control Center Gnome doesn't start from the menu or from command line: # /sbin/yast2 unknown option -S However, YaST2 modules as the software manager can be started from command line # yast2 sw_single By the way, I prefere YaST2 software mananger in qt mode also in Gnome and added the package yast2-control-center-qt Then these commands work to start the control center and software manager respectively, at least as a workaround: # yast2 --qt # yast2 sw_single --qt -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

from: set -- -S "${c[@]}" to: set -- "${c[@]}"

resolves the issue. (Although I dont know if it breaks something else)

Yes, that would revive the bug that you mention next:
