[Gllug] Linux Conf GUI

[Xander D Harkness]

Have you installed the gnome package as well, there is the standard 
linuxconf and gnome-linuxconf for the gui as opposed to console version.


I am horrified that Red Hat are looking to phase out the inclusion of 
Linuxconf as all beginners I introduce to Linux, that is one of the 
first places I point them to.  Red Hat have not seemed to move to 
replace it with anything else, certainly the Ximian utils are nothing 
like as comprehensive.

It sounds like you are logged in as user and su-ing to root to run 
Linuxconf.  To test have you tried logging in as root to run Linuxconf - 
is it any different?

Cheers
Xander

You can move the world with an idea, but you have to think of it first.
