Ja napot
It's not very often I get to use my two words of Hungarian,
 especially now that Nepkosarsaszag Ut is obsolete. Thanks for the opportunity
 and the help. I'll try it.
Someone suggested I just get xdvi out of the tetex-bin package and inst
all it. I tried that and it did not work. Should it have? (The complaint was
 kpeshich: unregocnized option `progname=xdvi'  followed by
   /usr/local/bin/xdvi: exec: xdvi.bin: not found   )
I couldn't find xdvi.bin in the tetex-bin .deb package.

  I retrieved dvisvga and dvilx from slink. I tried to install them
  with dpkg.   Each attempt fails with
the message tetex-bin is required but not installed. What am I missing
about this?

 Yes, there is tmview-98.06, which is split into the two .deb packages
 dvisvga for the console and dvilx for X11. Both work just great and
 especially dvisvga is a great means for having true WYSIWYG right at the
 console. These packages are not present in Debian-2.0 but you can easily
 fetch the sources from frozen and compile it yourself. I've already done

dvisvga and dvilx from slink (frozen) work perfectly under debian 2.0,
there's no need to recompile them :) Btw debian 2.0 has the binary package
tmview which has only an svga viewer. I split it into dvisvga and dvilx
since the latest tmview supports X nicely.

See dpkg --help and  --force-help

(and hope it really does not use something from tetex-bin)

I guess it needs metafont and the font (description) files from
tetex-bin.

If it works without problems after you forced the install, please
report a bug.

ftp://ietpd1.sowi.uni-mainz.de/pub/debian/unofficial/{source,binary}; as
dvilx_98.06-1_i386.deb, dvisvga_98.06-1_i386.deb and tmview_98.06* for the
sources. An updated lyx-1.0.0pre2 package is available too.
