I can fire up the Xwin32 manually. The IP add. set in Xwin32 was 127.0.0.1 Thanks From the Lyx for windows home page: Known problems and available fixes (if present ;-) Out of environmental space When calling the batch file RUNLYX.BAT you get the above error message. Make sure you have enough environment space configured on your system in C:\CONFIG.SYS. I recommend 1536 Bytes, so you need a line shell=C:\command.com C:\ /e:1536 /p in your C:\CONFIG.SYS, assuming that COMMAND.COM resides in C:\ on your system! If COMMAND.COM is not present in C:\ on your system it is usually present in the main Windows directory, i.e. C:\WINDOWS by default. Then you have to set shell=C:\WINDOWS\command.com C:\WINDOWS /e:1536 /p in your C:\CONFIG.SYS. I hope this helps, -Mario
