Hello José, There seems to be a problem with tex2lyx converting ACM template .tex files. I downloaded acm.zip from http://www.idt.mdh.se/kurser/ct3340/ht05/pcinstructions.html
"1. Unfortunately, there is an error in the ACM template found on the web (the ACM knows about it...). Get a correct version of the ACM files by downloading this zip file _(acm.zip)_ and unzip it." SH: The included .tex file in ACM.zip, sigproc-sp.tex, correctly converts to .dvi with: latex, bibtex, latex, latex(before, I upgraded the Latex fndb and ran LyX Reconfigure). Tom reported an ACM file failing on Mac earlier in this User thread, Subject: Re: .tex template > .lyx template (import troubleshooting) Lyx failed to convert sigproc-sp.tex with Cygwin1.4.0 and Win1.4.1svn The error message was: LyX: Cannot convert file An error occurred whilst running tex2lyx -f "sigproc-sp.tex" "sigproc-sp-template. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix or troubleshoot this? Regards, Stephen
