QTDIR is set correctly. The problem is that the loop in configure that checks for a working qt library fails with missing symbols (QTString::Text). The command to link conftest.cc tries to link the qt library before compiling the C++ file :- g++ -o conftest -mips4 -O2 -L/opt/lib32 -W -Wall -Winline -I/opt/qt//include -L/opt/qt//lib -lqt-mt conftest.cc -lSM -lICE -lc -lm -lX11 Manually changing this command to put the '-lqt-mt' after conftest.cc works. > > > qt-2 was used ... qt-3 produces a really broken UI. > > description ? Sorry. I should have said that I thought it was possibly a qt-IRIX problem, or a configuration problem on my machine. Amongst other things, dialog boxes appear with a very large vertical size (about 16 or so virtual screens), the main scrollbar has no arrow at the bottom (looks like it may be suffering from the same problem). qtconfig suffers from the same sort of problem, so I was assuming it wasn't a Lyx problem. I'll probably try having another go sometime over the next week.
