8.12.2 Restriction of Key Combinations
If your window manager uses global Alt combinations, the Alt combinations in YaST
might not work. Keys like Alt or Shift can also be occupied by the settings of the termi-
nal.
Replacing
Alt
with
Esc
Alt
shortcuts can be executed with
Esc
instead of
Alt
. For example,
Esc
+
H
replaces
Alt
+
H
.
Backward and Forward Navigation with
Ctrl
+
F
and
Ctrl
+
B
If the Alt and Shift combinations are occupied by the window manager or the ter-
minal, use the combinations Ctrl + F (forward) and Ctrl + B (backward) instead.
Restriction of Function Keys
The F keys are also used for functions. Certain function keys might be occupied
by the terminal and may not be available for YaST. However, the
Alt key combina-
tions and function keys should always be fully available on a pure text console.
