I am using the IJCGA Latex class and Lyx layout files from the LyX

reconfigured LyX. Now when I use the sample LyX document, it
terminates with
an error:
LaTeX Error: Unknown option `english' for package `graphics'.
This is because LyX uses the package babel by default. This packages
is necessary if you write non-English documents or English documents
containing text in other languages. Many article classes don't accept
babel because they are English-only. So to get it work, go to the LyX
preferences and uncheck there in the language settings the option "Use
babel".
But note: it is strongly recommended to re-enable the babel option for
all other documents you write with LyX.
Shouldn't "Use babel" really be a document setting, rather than a
preference? If so, we can still get this into 2.0.
Uwe, do you know if layouts can disable babel, with e.g.:
Provides babel 1
??
