The command behind GUI menu for YaST in KDE,
/usr/bin/xdg-su -c /sbin/yast2

The command does absolutely nothing I can see anywhere.
Nor does the menu item.

Where should I look?

This starts graphical YaST just fine:
kdesu /sbin/yast2 &

Hi
Is xdg installed? Just tried on an 11.2 standard install in a VM and it
works fine with KDE: 4.3.5 (KDE 4.3.5) "release 0"

As there was a kernel update available just now, I installed the
"default" instead of "desktop" that I had before.
(I asked earlier about their differences)

I don't know why "desktop" got installed in the first place, my initial
install included the LAMP stuff. I've never had "desktop" before.

Anyway, now YaST starts normally again.
I don't know what broke it and I don't know if it was the kernel update
or just the reboot that fixed it.

Whatever, I'm cool now :)
