Copy this file to /usr/share/lyx/layouts and run Tools/Reconfigure from

Hi friends,

Sorry for a small hack to the thread. I tried to emerge latex-beamer.
I've app-text/tetex installed in my computer, which is blocking
latex-beamer.

# emerge -pv latex-beamer

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[blocks B ] =app-text/tetex-3.0 (is blocking dev-tex/xcolor-2.00-r1)
[blocks B ] =app-text/tetex-3.0 (is blocking dev-tex/pgf-0.64-r1)
[blocks B ] =app-text/tetex-3.0 (is blocking dev-tex/latex-beamer-3.00-r1)
[ebuild  N] dev-tex/xcolor-2.00-r1  455 kB
[ebuild  N] dev-tex/pgf-0.64-r1  356 kB
[ebuild  N] dev-tex/latex-beamer-3.00-r1  2,482 kB

Please guide me to install latex-beamer.

Alright, if that is the case I have it installed already. The questions is, 
why doesn't a related document class show up in LyX? A friend of mine told me 
there should be a beamer class.

I don't know much about LyX, but there are many references to it in the
'beameruserguide', which in many respects is a very valuable document.

Try this: /usr/share/doc/tetex-*/latex/beamer/beameruserguide.pdf.
There are also some examples.

I suggest to read also the pgfuserguide in order to include pictures
in your presentation:
/usr/share/doc/tetex-*/latex/pgf/pgfuserguide.pdf.

(Of course, you should have emerged tetex with the doc use flag ;-).

Bye.
