I wasn't sure you got that working. The last I saw you were having issues. I saw the "geometry" issue below and offered up a issue I've seen in the past. I'm going to stop commenting because I don't use YOU/YaST2 under 7.2..back then I did stuff by hand. Such as ftping to the server and knowing what I had installed so it could be updated. Sorry to waste your time. * Michael D.
