Environment

Novell Client for Linux
SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11

Situation

Accessing "System Settings" under the red "N" from the notification area does nothing.

Resolution

Follow the steps below to resolve the issue:
 
1. Open a terminal and login as root.
2. Type "yast -i kdebase4-runtime"
3. Launch "System Settings" Under the red "N" and the Yast client configuration should now work.

Status

Reported to Engineering

Additional Information

The reason for the non responsiveness is because the Novell Client for Linux configuration page requires kdebase4-runtime to be installed.
