Description Jörg von Frantzius 2008-04-29 11:43:37 UTC
Open YaST and choose System/ "Datum und Zeit" ("date and time"), choose "Ändern..." ("change...") for "Zeit und Datum", choose "Synchronisiere mit NTP-Server", tick "Save NTP configuration", choose "Übernehmen" ("OK"). 

A dialog pops up saying "Synchronizing with NTP server...", and after a while an error dialog pops up saying "UI syntax error", going to attach screenshot in a minute.

I reproduced the bug.
Apparently the code expects a wizard widow with steps in NtpClient::Write, but when called from the timezone module, there is none.

It was because there was the little pop-up. I moved it around a bit and now it does not get in the way.
