    OpenSUSE 10.3 weirdness

    And then, all of a sudden, my OpenSUSE installation is acting weirdly. If I try to start krita through the minicli, nothing happens. If I start krita with an url through the minicli, everything is fine and krita starts and loads the image in the url. If I start yast2 through the minicli, the main window pops up -- but when I click on one of the modules, nothing happens. If I go to a shell, or even to a text console, and I start yast2 from the command line -- nothing happens at all. And finally, if I click on single click installation link for KDE4 on the OpenSUSE wiki, nothing happens either.

    I'm baffled, baffled as a bathroom geyser.

    Update

    Apparently, somehow -- and it looks like a kernel bug --, my /tmp directory was full with YaST temporary directories. This morning's kernel upgrade should have fixed that. Yast runs again -- and I can install KDE4 rc1 and see whether KOffice compiles against it.
