I managed to track down a s5report.cls that has been in
circulation at my department. Most people seem to write their
thesis in FrameMaker here otherwise. This is an excerpt:
\DeclareOption{s5paper}
{\setlength\paperheight {240mm}%
\setlength\paperwidth {165mm}}
I guess that means that is the trimmed paper size that I should
enter into LyX? It does not seem to be the same as what your quote
says. I wonder if someone actually has the "truth" and can give us
"facts".
