Debian testing just included the upgrade to lyx 2.2.0. I want to point
out one thing: If you don't see menu icons, you need to add the svg
versions of the qt library (it may still be linked with qt-4.??, but
looking for the svg libraries with apt-cache search found what I needed).
I have yet to check it all out, but I am absolutely floored by the
scrolling ability in math eqnarray finally. As one who never can keep
the line length in check during the writing process, it is a blessing to
be able to see the whole line. Formerly I have had to either set the
font really, really small or (more recently) stretch the window over two
monitors. This is a great advance; thanks to all who developed it.
I have yet to see what has changed with the beamer layout. I hope it is
not too much of a PITA to change old files to the new layout, since I
have classes on Tuesday that I need it for. I will find that out
tomorrow
