You could consider setting up an alternative (utf8-ready) greek.kmap. However I rather suggest to switch the keyboard layout at the X-Windows level. > Using a desktop manager might work.

There are plenty of applications for this that do not depend on Gnome or KDE, e.g. xkbsel, gkrellm-xkb, xxkb, just browse your distributions package list for programs with "xkb" in their name. Günter

Lyx 1.5.5 with Mac OSX 10.3.9
Hi, I'm working on a Mac OSX 10.3 and with the newest version of Lyx I had the problem that under file > export there only showed up "user defined" and now other options. With your help I could change it by choosing the formats I wanted unter lyx > preferences > file formats. I still have the problem that the directories in /tmp/ cannot be removed. I always get a message when copying, posting text or closing a file. I think about the time that I changed the export options, when I wanted to write text in a text enviroment, not in a tex enviroment, all the letters of that paragraph turn diagonal and I can't read the text anymore. It goes back to normal after a while, but I still can't write in a way that I can read and see directly what I'm writing. (see attachments) I have now idea how this happened, I never had any problem like this with Lyx before. I really hope you can help me! Thank you!

(see > attachments) This is a known bug with LyX 1.5.5 on OS X 10.3.9: http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4907 It looks like the binary package for LyX 1.5.5 was compiled differently than the previous versions. I'd really like to have a solution of this problem, too! Georg
Export Latex in Lyx on a Mac
I have just installed LyX 1.5.5 on a Mac Powerbook Pro with OX 10.5.3. I need to export the LyX code to Latex format but the Export has only rtf and Custom menu items listed. I have tried to use the Custom command line but nothing seems to work. How do I do it? Bill Mullin +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-*-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | William J.

This came up just yesterday. See http://www.nabble.com/Lyx-1.5.5-with-Mac-OS-X-10.3.9-to17960412.html (Is this a fresh install? If so, you shouldn't have had this sort of problem.) Bennett
Subfigure captions without parenthesis
Hi,
I would like to have subfigures labeled with a captial letter without
parenthesis, i.e. 'A' instead of '(a)'. Is there a way to insert some ERT
that would accomplish this? I tried to change the subfigure.sty by removing
the '()' around the following two commands:
\providecommand*{\thesubfigure}{\Alph{subfigure}}
\renewcommand*{\thesubfigure}{\Alph{subfigure}}
But this has no effect when I designate a figure as subfigure in the Lyx
dialog. Thank you in advance for your help.

I don't think you need to modify subfigure.sty. I just put your:
\renewcommand{\thesubfigure}{\Alph{subfigure}}
in a document using article and book classes and it worked (changed
subfigure labels from (a) to A).

LyX renumbered footnotes when I began new chapter---how to fix?
Hello. I recently installed LyX 1.5.5, updating from 1.3. I am using
LyX to write my dissertation. Footnotes are to be numbered
consecutively through the document, and indeed the output in 1.3 did
this. Now, however, LyX renumbered the footnotes, beginning again with
footnote 1, where a new chapter begins.
Here is my preamble, if it helps:
\ProvidesPackage{mla}\RequirePackage{geometry,setspace,fancyhdr}\geometry{margin=1.5in,top=0.5in,headheight=15pt,headsep=0.25in,
nofoot}\lhead{}\chead{}\rhead{Loewe~\thepage}\lfoot{}\cfoot{}\rfoot{}\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0in}\pagestyle{fancy}\renewcommand{\doublespacing}{\setstretch{1.92}}
% only for 12 pt\doublespacing\setlength{\parindent}{0.5in}
\textwidth=6in\oddsidemargin=0.5in \evensidemargin=0.5in
\topmargin=-0.5in\textheight=9in
\usepackage{url}
\tolerance 1414
\hbadness 1414
\emergencystretch 1.5em
\hfuzz 0.3pt
\widowpenalty=1
\hyphenpenalty=1
\vfuzz
\hfuzz
\raggedbottom
\usepackage{titlesec}
Help!
Thank you!

Lyx in Podcast
Hi, I was asked to give a podcast on the coming sunday on LyX. There are two items where I am not sure I know enough. One is the hardware prerequisites. There are a few remarks in the web, but not much detailled hints. I do realize that it depends much on what one plans to do (text only versus many figures, presentations (powerdot and the like) with large figures etc). Secondly, dependencies on other software. I would appreciate your hints. Thanks a lot Wolfgang
