However I'm also interested to learn LyX, the front end, simultaneously as cross reference. $ rpm -qa | grep latex tetex-latex-2.0.2-13 Latex already installed and running on PC $ lyx bash: lyx: command not found $ rpm -qa | grep lyx No printout $ yum search lyx Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Base Server: Fedora.us Extras (Stable) Server: Fedora.us Extras (Testing) Server: Fedora.us Extras (Unstable) Server: Livna.org - Fedora Compatible Packages (stable) Server: Livna.org - Fedora Compatible Packages (unstable) Server: macromedia.mplug.org - Flash Plugin Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Released Updates Finding updated packages Downloading needed headers Looking in available packages for a providing package Available package: lyx.i386 0:1.3.4-0.fdr.6.1.92 from fedora-stable matches with lyx 1 results returned Looking in installed packages for a providing package No packages found - END - I think I need to install the package "lyx.i386 0:1.3.4-0.fdr.6.1.92".
