Re: Lyx*geometry not understood by 1.1.6fix1
Hi Guenter... I had the same problem. The only way I found around it was to include the command line command in a start button on the Enlightenment start bar. LyX does not seem to want to respond to the .Xdefaults file at all. Also, since I'm using a hi-res screen, I couldn't use the straignt numbers of pixels I wanted the LyX window to open to. I had to multiply the -geometry figures by a third to a half again to get LyX to the size I wanted it to open as. The command line in the Enlightenment start-bar button is in the same form as the one you used to start LyX the way you want it from a terminal: lyx -geometry NNNxNNN I couldn't find anything else that worked. Developers? Any answers?

Changing LyX's opening window size...
Hi, I would like to change the size of the window that opens when I start LyX. I can't, however, find anything in the documentation or the lyxrc files that tells one how to do this. Putting a .geometry command for lyx in the Xdefaults file doesn't do a thing. And there seems to be noplace in the lyxrc file or the preferences popup to do this. Anyone know how? Or is the initial size of the LyX window hard-coded into the program? Thanks!

LyX 1.6 fix1 RPM doesn't seem to install LyX?
Hi, I've updated LyX (on RedHat 7 machine) from LyX 1.5.2 to 1.6n (latest version) but upon starting LyX the help file (I have the splash window turned off) says that the version is still 1.5.2. Yet RPM indicates (rpm -Uhv etc) that LyX 1.6.n is installed when I run it (the last time I used rpm -Uhv --force LyX-etc. Is this really still 1.5.2 or is the version now stating a mistaken version number? Thanks!

Re: LyX "disappearing" all the time
I'm running a Linux Box on a pentium 166, RedHat 6.1 Linux with a 2.2.20 kernel. LyX 1.1.4 (no fix) disappears occasionally without warning for me too!
