Description Refilwe Seete 2009-08-05 22:58:25 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.1.1) Gecko/20090714 SUSE/3.5.1-2.3 Firefox/3.5.1

When using the new qt4-based YaST2 control centre one must use the mouse to open modules. Neither using the Enter nor the Spacebar key will open a module.

It is possible to quickly select modules by pressing the first letter (such as "A" for AppArmor) however.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open qt4 control centre
2. Select any module with either the mouse or keyboard
3. Press [enter] in attempt to open module
Actual Results:  
Module does not open as expected.

Expected Results:  
Launch of chosen YaST or Sax module.

Although this bug has a simple work-around for most users (use a mouse), this has a11y ramifications.  This is why I have marked it "Major" severity rather than "Normal" or "Minor".
