Hi,

Maybe this is not the right place to ask this question, but one never knows if someone can help with this, if one does not ask, right?

If i look in 'other', in the xfce 4 menu, i see all the modules from yast 'naked'.(is this intended?) There is however no way to get into yast, or root, to manage fi software. Do i have to understand that this is not possible from xfce, or is there some hidden way to go into root, and call the desired gui-module?

Sounds like a bug to me. Anyway, you should be able to start the YaST via kdesu/gnomesu also from xfce4

Stano

I will first find out if i did everything the right way, and if everything is installed properly, before filing a bug about it, ;-) - -- Have a nice day, M9. Now, is the only time that exists.

You should have yast2-mcs-plugin package installed if you selected Xfce pattern. This adds icon to Xfce Settings manager (called Yast2 Control Center). About 'naked' modules in Other menu: all /usr/share/applications/YaST2/*desktop files should probably have "OnlyShowIn=KDE;GNOME;" like /usr/share/applications/YaST.desktop does.

That's because the YaST people decided to use some KDE- and GNOME-only (non-standardised!) extension to the .desktop format to require root permission instead of using xdg-su. Because YaST is useless without root permissions, we decided to show it only in KDE and GNOME.

There is no icon there.. I will restart KDE to look into Yast if the pkg is installed or not...

This i do not understand. The modules are accessible, one gets a warning that these modules only 'realy' work when having 'root'-privileges, and that is correct, as i experienced...(instead of this warning, a root-password requester should be offered, i would presume..?) - -- Have a nice day, M9.

These modules should not be visible in Other menu. We're working on it.

Ah, ok, this i understand ;-) - -- Have a nice day, M9. Now, is the only time that exists.
