https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=305268#c2 Andreas Jaeger changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- AssignedTo|aj@novell.com |ke@novell.com --- Comment #2 from Andreas Jaeger 2007-08-28 09:03:27 MST --- Let's not be judgemental: YaST Software Management Gtk and Qt Frontends ============================================= By default, the new YaST gtk front-end runs on the GNOME desktop, and the YaST qt front-end on all other desktops. Feature-wise, the gtk frontend is very similar to the Qt front-end described in the manuals. One exception is the gtk Software Management module (see the Start-Up guide in Chapter 3), which differs considerably from the Qt port. To start the Qt flavor on the GNOME desktop, proceed as follows: Open the /etc/sysconfig/yast2 file as root. Change WANTED_GUI="auto" to WANTED_GUI="qt", save and exit the file. To start the gtk flavor of YaST, no matter on which desktop, proceed accordingly, only this time changing WANTED_GUI="auto" to WANTED_GUI="gtk". ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Btw. no need to run SuSEconfig. -- 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.
