VMWare-Tools on SuSE 10.0 and 10.1: Problem with YAST

$

A friendly hello to anybody reading this.

First of all excuse my english as it is not my native language.

 

I have a VMWare Server build 23869 on Windows XP(same happens on Workstation 5.5) and created a VM for SuSE 10.0 and 10.1.

Installed both versions with no special settings. After installing the VMWare-Tools (installed the TAR-Version) in YaST\Hardware the applets 'Mouse Model' and 'Keyboard Layout' don't function anymore.

If you click them you can see some harddisk activity and a small window titled 'SAX2 importing data' appearing for a second or so. But then - nothing.

If you start YaST in a 'real' shell (no XTerm) you can access both applets without problems.

After un-installing VMWare-Tools both applets are again working under X as expected.

Anyone seen this before? And if so - any idea what is happening?

Thank you.

Peter
