Did anybody checked why YaST2 performs like star office :)? I think yast2 is open source.
It's not OpenSource© because of the restriction in the license that prohibits redistribution for money, but it's open source in the sense that you get the source and can do pretty much what you want.
First of all, it takes around *half an hour* to complete on some machines of mine (again P2/266 or P2/300 w/ 128 MB RAM)
That's really bad to hear.
I think that might be true if trying to run it in X, but the curses version shouldn't be much slower than yast1.
But it is at least nice that YaST2 runs without hardware accelerated OpenGL :-) SCNR.
OpenGL support is planned for 8.1. Just kidding, -- -ckm
