Description Chris Cox 2008-07-29 20:45:39 UTC 
Because of the new last line (which I think is worthless btw), the new required size for a character based yast is 80x25, otherwise significant tabs or other dialogs are chopped off at the top (leading one to believe they are not there).  The defaults for konsole windows is 80x24 (vt100 style).  

My personal opinion is to get yast back the way it used to be without all the extraneous extra paths to get things done, etc... but my guess is that the way this is going to be solved is to support 80x25 as the default terminal konsole (or other) size.  Noting that older terminals will no longer work well with openSUSE (e.g. a vt100 terminal).

Aw... shoot... make it support 80x24 again.  That's really a bug folks (don't compromise on something that makes no sense to compromise on).

Suppose you are speaking about network configuration.
