Basically, if you ever patched the kernel source, then you'll have no problems :-) Put the uncompressed patch in the lyx source dir and issue: patch -p1 < patch-1.3.1 -p1 helps the patch program to (loosely said) position itself within the source tree. You shouldn't have any problems with the patch. After that, issue ./configure <options, see README>, then make, then make install. That's it. However, it looks that the configure script in 1.3.1 (at least the 1.3.0+patch version) is broken and make complains about the missing aclocal-1.6. With 1.3.0 I had no problems. I'll investigate it a little bit more deeply and post my findings. Regards, Davor -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
