figures not rendering, Debian - solution

[Markus Mohr]

Hi!

Since this question pops up rather often, heres the solution for Lyx
1.1.6fix3 for Debian (and probably other distros, too):

1) replace package 'gs-aladdin' (6.50-5) with 'gs' (5.50-8)
2) type 'xhost +<hostname>' or just 'xhost +' (just '+' opens your
display to everyone!)

If gs-aladdin gets updated, error 1) will probably go away, 2) will
leave us with Lyx 1.2 (so I've heard :)

hope that helps someone
