Devs,
When managing remote systems via ssh, if yast2 is called by "sudo yast2" the ncurses interface is used. This happens even if you specify --qt "sudo yast2 --qt module".
The opposite occurs when you su to root on the remote host and then call yast2. You get the normal gui interface then.
Why the difference?
I just tried mine -- works fine. You did edit your sudoer's file to allow sudo to pass the correct environment variables ...hmmm...actually looks like I disabled the env filtering altogether. Guess it got to be too much of a hassle. Works for me as I don't have other users on my system. I think it was working fine -- I don't believe the default includes things like 'DISPLAY' or 'REMOTEHOST', which I needed for redirection to work, so I had to add those to the 'env_keep' tag in the sudoer's file.... good luck, linda -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
