I have the same problem. none of the options in the Edit menu show up, and when I press Ctrl-V, lyx says "Command Disabled" in the bottom status bar. I have been using lyx for over 5 years, I remember I had to make a "lyxpipe" sometimes, although I don't remember how. It was a special file in my home directory. Is it possible that this pipe is not created on the affected systems?
my system is Linux kaos-desktop 2.6.24-23-generic #1 SMP Mon Jan 26 00:13:11 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux and I'm using lyx 1.5.3 -- Lyx `paste external selection' broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/65199 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
