Hello, 

My system: SuSE 9.3., KDE 3.4, teTeX 3.0, Lyx 1.3.5

I am using LyX to write my dissertation. Until now my girlfriend didn't give a 
damn about it and preferred OpenOffice, but when I showed her the first 
chapter printed out she nearly fainted, especially when she understood the 
possibilities of BibTeX. Well, I thought, this is my chance, and gave her a 
brief introduction into LyX (it's always better to wait until people ask you 
than to agitate them, but that is another topic...). Well, the presentation 
started off quite well but ended in an embarassing disaster. She is Spanish 
and I could not convince LyX to write vowels with accents, neither with 
Spanish nor with English or German keyboard, with and without keymaps, with 
and without the KDE keyboard switcher. What the hell is that?

Sorry, I know it has been on the list, but I still cannot find a solution.

I cannot believe that the Spanish speaking world using the qt-version is 
unable to use LyX. Is there an easy workaround or am I simply too stupid?
Hoping that the second assumption is the wrong one - 

Thank you for your help

Christopher
