YAST2(8) System configuration YAST2(8) NAME YaST2 - universal configuration utility SYNOPSIS yast2 [ options ] [ module ] [ module specific options ] yast2 --install <package> [ <package> [ ... ] ] DESCRIPTION YaST2 is used to configure the system. It can configure a common hardware (sound cards, printers, keyboards, mice), network connections (network cards, ISDN cards, modems, DSL connections), network clients and services (NFS, NIS), as well as a general system options (language, partitioning, software, bootloader). YaST2 comes with three frontends: GTK , QT and ncurses. All frontends are functionally equivalent. The correct frontend is selected automatically based on the available com- ponents and the current environment (the DISPLAY variable). Use yast2 alone to launch the YaST2 Control Center from which you can select a particu- lar configuration module or use yast2 <module> to launch the module directly. OPTIONS --qt Run YaST in the QT graphical frontend --gtk Run YaST in the GTK graphical frontend --ncurses Run YaST in the ncurses text-mode frontend -g, --geometry Default window size (QT frontend only). -h, --help Print a usage and exit. -i, --install <package> [ <package> [ ... ] ] Install an RPM package. The package can be a single short package name (e.g. gvim) which will be installed with dependency checking, or the full path to an rpm package (e.g /tmp/gvim.rpm) which will be installed without dependency checking. --remove <package> [ <package> [ ... ] ] Remove an RPM package. The package can be short package names (e.g. gvim) which will be removed with dependency checking. -l, --list List all available modules.
