Thanks, Johann. Stephen Harris has given me a detailed prescription on how to reproduce the textclass.lst problem. The font problem? I suspect that's simply down to the fact that the code that LyX uses to find the default fonts isn't working. Known bug. Once you specify the fonts explicitly in the Edit->Preferences dialog, you'll be OK. Anyway, clearly more work needed :( -- Angus
