Description Andreas Mueller 2013-05-07 10:46:17 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_3) AppleWebKit/536.29.13 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.4 Safari/536.29.13

The "Online Update Configuration" screen in Yast2 does not have any buttons to exit from it, it completely relies on the function keys F9 (cancel) and F10 (OK). But these keys may not be available when logging in remotely, e.g. via SSH. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. login remotely e.g. from a Mac to the Linux box
2. start yast2
3. goto online update configuration
Actual Results:  
There is no way to exit from that screen. One has to log in from a different window and kill yast, not really elegant

Expected Results:  
The screen needs a button to exit from it or a keyboard shortcut that works from any type of terminal.

The buttons are there, seems there are not visible for some reason.

What resolution are you using in the terminal?
Could you attach a screenshot?
