One of the reasons I'm going for LyX is the greater cross-compatbility between my Windows desktop and Linux laptop. However the newest versions available for each system are different - 1.6.1 on Windows and 1.4.3 on the EeePC.
EeePC's OS is Linux so it should be possible to install the latest LyX on an EeePC. (googling only gives me this result for now: http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=1283)
Perhaps unsurprisingly, a file saved in 1.6.1 won't open in 1.4.3.
This is of course correct.
Is it possible for me to make version 1.6.1 save in a way which retains compatibility with the older version?
Yes, save you file in LyX in the format of LyX 1.4.x via the Export menu. regards Uwe
