It would be nice if there was a mechanism for other configuration systems to at least be started from YaST. Like gnome / kde / compiz configurations. Not to duplicate them. But at least to find them. I am sure there are many more config programs that can be located. Perhaps this should be a YaST module more than any change to YaST itself. But I think it is a missing feature. Something simple. Just a description of what the config program configs, and a button to start it. Those are user-level configurations. YaST is a SYSTEM level tool.
If those configuration programs were invoked from YaST, they would only change root's configuration -- they wouldn't change diddly squat for the normal user.
And frankly, giving newbies the idea that a SYSTEM set-up tool should be where to go to change a USER'S customizations is just plain backwards. For most users there is no difference except root requiring entering a password.
But it runs AS ROOT.
Open a console window and launch yast2 as a regular user, you will not be asked for roots password and will have yast2 running in a user limited mode. Ken -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
