That was it!
I learned a lot:
- LyX does read .Xdefaults (Also version 1.1.6)!
- Since 1.1.6 LyX no longer understands "width" and "height" arguments.
- The colon is important:
"-some_option value" becomes "LyX*some_option: value" in .Xdefaults
- Changes in .Xdefaults will be in effect only after a restart of the
X-server.
Thanks a lot
