Hi Paola, Thanks for your testing and feedback! What do you have listed in Tools > Preferences > Paths under Temporary directory? Before changing anything, please backup whatever path you have there because we would like to know what it is. Do you still have the stable version of LyX installed? You do not see the problem there correct? On that version of LyX what do you have listed in Tools > Preferences > Paths under Temporary directory? Finally, what is the output of the command "df -h /var" ? Would you mind bottom-posting (replying below the quote of the previous email)? Sorry for the bother but it helps keep emails organized. Best, Scott
