"OTOH, the font selection dialogue should not let you select a font

not installed on your system."-- I agree wholeheartedly. In fact, LyX 2.0.5.1 under Windows XT does tell me (right in the list) that the font was not installed, but the same version of Lyx under Lubuntu 12.10 64 bits omits this useful note. Both systems run TexLive 2012. Since under (L)ubuntu the tlmgr (the package manager for TexLive) is not normally available, and since URWPalladio does not appear in the ubuntu repositories, I could not use it.

This should work in all non-corrupt LaTeX installations. It is an extended version of URW Palla* with real small-caps and some basic math support.When I try to use the URW Palladino that appears in the list, I get the error message: Font-not-found, even though I have TeX gyre and other packages installed that say they use URW Palladino.TeX gyre Paladio is based on URW Pal* but incorporates this in its own font file(s). I.e. installing this does not make URWs palladingsbums available under this name. OTOH, the font selection dialogue should not let you select a font that is not installed on your system. Could you please try with a simple document containing just ASCII? Maybe some non-ASCII letters are not supported without LyX knowing. Günter --
