It does also for me, but the corresponding 'lyx' executable won't load.

  Thank you all very much.

 I compiled LyX 1.4.1 from source on a Kubuntu 5.10 PPC machine.

 Take a look at the instructions given on this page:

   http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LyXOnDebian#toc6

 They work for Kubuntu too.

 Basically you create you own *.deb packages that you install.

 A good idea is to uninstall previous LyX packages instead of do a upgrade
 with your own, because there can be a problem if you only build the Qt
 frontend yourself when the old package also want to upgrade the xforms
 frontend.

Ok. I followed these instructions and got 4 .deb files (I didn't include the 
gtk frontend) which I installed after deinstalling and cleaning the 1.3.6 
packages that come with KUbuntu 5.10. Of the 2 executables 'lyx-xforms' looks 
horrible but works ok and 'lyx-qt' does not load. When I try to load it with 
the '-dbg init' option this is what I get:

Ok. I followed these instructions and got 4 .deb files (I didn't include the 
gtk frontend) which I installed after deinstalling and cleaning the 1.3.6 
packages that come with KUbuntu 5.10. Of the 2 executables 'lyx-xforms' looks 
horrible but works ok and 'lyx-qt' does not load. When I try to load it with 
the '-dbg init' option this is what I get:

and it stops there. This is the same I get for the executable obtained when I 
compile the program in the old ./configure... -> make... -> make install 
sequence, as I posted in my reply to Holger's answer.

I'm beggining to think that this must be related either to KUbuntu's version 
of the qt libraries or to my particular instalation. I'll keep researching on 
this...

Thanks again.

In fact, it does work. But there's a problem with the executable obtained as I

Trouble with ispell

2005-09-27 Thread Luis Angel Fernández Cuadrado
Hi,

I'm using SuSE 9.3 on an AMD64 machine. Normally, I compile LyX from source 
but last time I was a bit lazy and downloded and installed the 1.3.6 binary 
in the LyX ftp site (bin) compiled for SuSE 9.2. Almost everything works 
allright with the exception of spell checking. My normal language for 
spelling is spanish ('espanol' in ispell terms) and I've never had problems 
with this until now. With the mentioned binary, whenever I try to check 
spelling I get a 'No word lists can be found for the language (espanol)' 
message. I have ispell and aspell with support for spanish and both work well 
from the command line. I've also tried to instruct LyX to use any of them but 
no luck.

Googlin' arond I've found some messages from people with similar problems and 
they seem to be related with LyX beeing compiled with support for aspell 
instead of ispell (or something like that). Can anybody please throw some 
light into this or, better, point me to an rpm which works in SuSE 9.3?

Thanks to all.

Another 'quick and dirty' way to make it is to just copy the graphic into the 
Windows clipboard, open the 'paintbrush' application (which I think is in 
every Windows computer) and paste it there. Then save the graphic in .jpg 
format and IF everything concerning the LyX installation in Windows is right 
then ImageMagick will do its trick and you can see your graphic when you tell 
LyX to include the .jpg file. The main disadvantage of this is that the .jpg 
file will probably take more space than a 'properly' converted .ps or .eps 
file. 

I tried this just the week before with my students in a very poor Windows LyX 
installation and it worked.

Good luck.

Prosper

2003-02-20 Thread Luis Angel Fernández Cuadrado
Hi all,

I've been using the Prosper way of making pdf presentations following the 
indications given in Herbert's pages. For the moment, everything is going 
allright because I don't need complex things (fancy steps or transitions, 
etc.). However, I've found a couple of things that I'd like to get some 
information about:

- As installed (per Herbert's instructions), the 'slides (prosper)' document 
type only works when you have 'English (American)' as document language. If I 
try,  for instance, spanish (my mother tongue) I get a lot of compilation 
errors.

-Also, I can only get the slide style that comes from Dekel Tsur's Cluster 
example. If I try to indicate (in the class options from the document type 
dialog) any other slide style, let's say 'frames', I get also a lot of errors 
in the compilation.

Anybody can provide pointers so as how to solve/understand what's going on?

I'm using LyX 1.3.0 (qt-frontend) in a SuSE 8.0 system with KDE 3.1 (if all 
this matters)

Thank you all.

Error converting to loadable format

2003-01-21 Thread Luis Angel Fernández Cuadrado
Hi all,

I'm faced to a mistery. I have 2 Linux systems, one at work and the other at 
home. Both are SuSE 8.0 and both have Ghostscript 6.53, xforms 0.89 and 
ImageMagick 5.4.2. In both I have compiled and installed LyX 1.2.2 from the

I can see the included .eps figures while in the one at home I constantly get 
'Error converting to loadable format' and the figure won't display in LyX.

Which puzzles me most is that recently I installed LyX version 1.3.0pre2 with 
the qt frontend (which, by the way, looks great and has compiled and it's 
been working so far without hassle) and the same thing happens: I can see the 
.eps's in the system at work but not in the system at home.

I'd like to hear suggestions so as to what to check and get the damm thing 
working.

Thanks.

  Where can I find that program ? I've been trying on CTAN without success. 
Any
  pinter will be wellcome. Thanks.
  
 
 see http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/download.html
 You find the program Xpdf.
 
 Xpdf is a viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. (These are
 also
 sometimes also called 'Acrobat' files, from the name of Adobe's PDF
 software.) Xpdf runs under the X Window System on UNIX, VMS, and OS/2.
 The non-X
 components of the package (pdftops, pdftotext, etc.) also run on Win32
 systems and
 should run on pretty much any system with a decent C++ compiler. 
 Xpdf is designed to be small and efficient. It does not use the Motif or
 Xt libraries. It can use standard X fonts. 
 Xpdf should work on pretty much any system which runs X11 and has
 Unix-like
 (POSIX) libraries. You'll need ANSI C++ and C compilers to compile it.
 If you
 compile it for a system not listed on the xpdf web page, please let me
 know. If you can't get it to compile on your system, I'll try to help. 
 
 
 But I have problems with running it.

Too late for an answer but thanks for the information. In fact is does what 
it says. Thanks.
