Sorry for replying late. I am currently reading the LyX guides, before to start a LaTex book. LyX is a great piece of software, and I like it. I am now aware that my question is not LyX related, but some Fedora experienced users on the list might want to help with the issue: I am a Fedora desktop user. The Fedora repository Texlive version is old (2007), and some parts (modules?) are missing due to license problems, among which: Japanese input "CJK", some fonts, etc. Installing LyX from the repository install Texlive2007 as one of the dependencies and everything works out of the box. I am left with 2 choices: a. As suggested by José Mato, installing the Fedora testing Texlive2011 version. b. Installing the Texlive2011 ISO. Method "A" would be the easiest, with my level of knowledge. However reading the Fedora forum, it is not recommended [It is not a statement, this is what I read, see url below] (I am not positive if the CJK module (or Ptex ?) - and some Japanese document classes - are include with this version. CJK is what I need most). http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=262135&mode=linear http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/TeXLive Method "B" might be optimal, but I am worry about dependencies problems. The proper installation itself. And the latex front-end software settings (I have installed LyX and Texmaker). I could use some advice.
