Hello,
When openning yast in terminal and going for “software”, it fails to open software section (Online update and Software management)? 
I find it strange since all other software tabs are working.
What version of openSUSE

It was working a moment ago, and then it just stoped
However it works from desktop opensuse 11.2, it fails just in terminal.
Try rebooting
I have restarted already, still the same problem.
You are starting yast in a terminal How and Why
It should be a su terminal, then
yast2
Are there errors in the terminal when you try starting software management?
I’m starting yast as “su”, after I do yast2, or yast, using in terminal to do remote system update, now updating fails, maybe it’s time for a fresh install of opensuse 11.2 or there might be some kind of a bug?
su terminal do
