-- Description of problem: When I call a draktool from console in X session, I get the console version or the error "Couldn't run in console mode"... xtest is not available on my system but it used by /usr/sbin/drakconf It's a x86_64 PC with a fresh mageia 2 installation from scratch and GNOME only.

are you using networkmanager ? (the default one of gnome) if yes I think it's the bug 3782
I suppose: it's strictly the first boot after default install for gnome...
Oooups, I should read the 3782 firstly... I've search in this bug tracker an see the 3782. But I've check my hostname it's ok. And when I change the /usr/lib/libDrakX/common.pm as explained it works !
ok cool *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 3782 ***

Euuh I don't see how the absence of 'xtest' should be corrected by a good hostname? And I've tried with the workaround of 3782 it's failed: # history 245 xauth list 246 export DISPLAY=localhost.localdomain/unix:0 247 mcc 248 rpmdrake 249 xauth list 250 xauth add ":0" MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 629cceb23dc94a08817e8f0c5b262fe4 251 xauth list 252 xauth add "127.0.0.1:0" MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 629cceb23dc94a08817e8f0c5b262fe4 253 xauth list 254 rpmdrake 255 drakxconf 256 /etc/init.d/network status I hope the 3782 solution solved this problem too...

Now mga2 has drakxtools and drakxtools-backend 14.22.3 It works for me, at least with current version. I had never noticed any problem, but if I use these tools from console, it is normally a root console. However invoking from menu should be equivalent to invoking from non-root console. Note that optional drakxtools is probably required for graphic mode. It is normally installed with gnome. Closing as fixed

this was wrongly diagnosticed as same as bug #3782 but in fact it is bug #10425 (wrong version of libdrakx-kbd-mouse-x11 ) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 10425 ***
