[Bug 604028] New: yast sometimes does not start
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=604028 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=604028#c0 Summary: yast sometimes does not start Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: benderamp@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.4; Linux) KHTML/4.4.2 (like Gecko) SUSE Yast sometimes (enough often to become annoying) does not start. Just type yast in krunner, press enter, enter root password to the popup dialog and wait forever. System process do not show it. Also tried to run it from konsole with "kdesu yast" - it asks root password and also nothing happens - terminal does not show any log (except from kdesu) - ksysmonitor shows yast2 process at this time until I press ctrl+c in the terminal. Most times this happens after I start/close yast several times, but this last time this happened just after rebooting the system. Only login/logout helps (or probably even reboot required - I usually do not logoff to kdm). Remember this issu on 11.0, now this still present on 11.2 Reproducible: Sometimes -- 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.

after this receive dialog to enter root password, enter it and nothing happens then - can just press ctlr+c to finish this process. If run for example "kdesu kwrite", receive same output and kwrite starts with root previleges, so kdesu works fine. Attach y2log log (and reopen bug):

AFAIK starting textmode programs such as ncurses YaST in the terminal is not supported.
Ok, I see that I could provide wrong test-case as when yast is started from terminal emulator, it tries to show its ncurses interface, so kdesu is not good for that testing. But actually I did not want to start ncurses yast with kdesu (it was just an attempt to receive some more info in console output) - I want to start GUI yast from kickoff menu or from alt+f2 krunner interface and this now fails for me, though this did work few minutes ago. So again, I press alt+f2, type yast (see "YaST" option with green label on top of suggested options list), press enter - green label with yast mascot starts jumping near the mouse cursor and nothing happens then, "ps -A | grep yast" gives nothing. This starts working after reboot - I can start yast gui with no problems until it starts failing again. P.S. The described behavior did last for about 30mins/hour - did try to run yast multiple times with no success during this time as described above, but just before I wanted to submit this comment, tried to start it again and it did start. So it seems that during this time something silently prevented it from being started and this reason has gone somewhere somehow. This does not mean, that this will not happen again though, so please reopen the bug. -- 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.
