NAME
YaST - "Yet another Setup Tool", the installation and configuration
tool
SYNOPSIS
yast2 [ options ] [ module ] [ module specific options ]
DESCRIPTION
YaST can be used to configure the system. It can configure a common
hardware (sound cards, printers), network connections (network cards),
network clients and services (like NFS, FTP), as well as a general sys-
tem options (language, partitioning, software, bootloader).
YaST comes with Qt (graphical) and ncurses (text mode) frontends
located in libyui-qt and libyui-ncurses packages. Both frontends are
functionally equivalent. The correct frontend is selected automatically
based on the available components and the current environment (the DIS-
PLAY variable).
Use yast2 alone to launch the YaST Control Center from which you can
select a particular configuration module or use yast2 module to launch
the module directly.
OPTIONS
--qt Run YaST in the Qt graphical frontend if available, otherwise it
uses the ncurses frontend
--ncurses

-g, --geometry
