Just about ANYTHING I do with YAST2 freezes my screen. I can run YAST1, however, I want to run YAST2.
In my experience, Yast2 has a bug.
Run top, and see if any copies of y2bignfat are hogging the CPU. If so, kill them. Then shut down the system. (Yes, just like Windows.) Then restart, and try again. This procedure has worked for me on SuSE 7.3.
a) How can run top if I have a TOTAL system freeze? I end up doing a hard boot. b) Are you saying that if I could kill "y2bignfat" (what's this?) what would stop it from running again after system reboot and attempting to run "YAST2" again? Thank You, Anthony
