Aw: Re: #10778: lyx aborts with CheckTeX

[Martin Rötting]

Dear All,

thank you so much for all replies. Do I understand correct that I might be able to continue to work when I remove the koren parts (CJK envionment) form my text? At the moment I can not procuce any output. Lyx crashes.

Comment (by spitz):

Right, we attempt to close a language before a CJK environment at this
place which is actually the main language. Next to the crash (due to the
attempt to pop from an empty stack), there's also two superfluous
{{{\end{german in the latex output.

I suppose we need to check whether we are at main language level at
{{{Paragraph.cpp:2544}}}. Enrico probably knows better how to do that
within the language nesting framework.

Please test rc1 tars

[Scott Kostyshak]

Tars for 2.3.0rc1 are up:

ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-2.3/lyx-2.3.0rc1/

Please download the tars and test compilation, installation, and basic
functionality. Let us know how it goes.

If all goes well and there are no major problems, I'll plan to announce
rc1 in a few days.

Thanks,

Scott

OK I will not announce tomorrow and will wait a couple of days for
testing.

I'll get the tar balls (and mac and win binaries) on the FTP and ask for
testing on lyx-devel by tonight. I could not do it earlier because I had
work. Even though it is just one command to upload, I am always nervous
using the FTP and like to double, triple, and quadruple check with
dry-run and I try to only upload when I know I will have time afterwards
so I can correct something in case it goes wrong.

Hi Scott,

does this mean 2.3.x is open so that I can commit installer and doc changes?

We could also try
4. Note when we have requested a repaint and exit early from paintEvent() when 
we did not ask for this repaint. (Or even boldlier do a full metrics+draw).

That might work.

I would say it is nice that you care about preparing binaries for mac & win
but you should also care about linux binaries, i.e. it would be wise to let
some time between announcing and having tarballs on ftp so you get feedback
from ppl on linux distros similarly as when we release stable...

Will release 2.3.0rc1 tomorrow

[Scott Kostyshak]

Dear all,

We've built and checked the binaries. Everything looks good for rc1. I
will upload to the ftp in a couple of hours, wait for the mirrors to
pick everything up, and unless we discover a major issue, we should be
able to announce the release tomorrow night (after the mirrors have had
time).

Thanks for all of your help,

Scott

Go ahead to 2.3.x branch. Although we have not officially released RC1,
we have referred to the installers publicly and I have pushed the commit
and tag, so there's no going backward now. If any blocker is found, we
would have to move to RC2.

Backported to 2.2.x.

+1, as it is simple enough, but I guess we have to wait until 2.3.x is
open again,
after the release of RC1.

It's fine for 2.2.x, too. Seems totally safe.

Aw: Re: #10778: lyx aborts when trying to send a file to tex

[roettingm]

Before the crash I do nothing spexial, just push the button on ly to lyxtopdf or latextopdf. She screenshoot was saken after I pushed "test tex" in the tools menue. My lyx file is attached. All worked fine before yesterday anf it jist added a word or corrected a typo.

Thank you. I reinstalled lyx 2.3 beta1. All ok.


Hi Hatim,

could you please do me the favor and

1. uninstall LyX 2.3beta1 completely (also the user settings!)

2. install LyX 2.3RC1:
http://ftp.lyx.de/LyXWinInstaller/LyX2.3.0-RC1/LyX-230RC-1-Installer-1.exe

(This time you have to uninstall the existing LyX version before because 
there were incompatible changes between beta1 and RC1 in the installer. 
(The beta releases are just for testing, not for real life work).)


Can you then work with LyX 2.3?

If not then

3. run MiKTeX's update wizard twice (until no more updates are available).

Can you then work with LyX 2.3?

I am asking because for LyX 2.3RC1 I upgraded the Qt5 version and 3 days 
ago also MiKTeX updated its Qt5 version.


many thanks and regards
Uwe

El 01.11.2017 a las 04:20, Richard Heck escribió:


This is a question you could ask of the people at your distro. They made
a decision to compile the kernel so that iwlwifi was integrated into it
and not a module.


Hi Richard,

many thanks for your detailed reply. I learned a lot.

So I need a distribution that uses kernel modules for the different 
drivers but also offers a rolling release. What distribution offers this?


I see now that NVIDIA is here on Manjaro a kernel module. But all other 
tings, like keyboard, touchpad, USB, LAN, wifi are no modules.



Why can't you use an older kernel? Just install it.


I found out that the bug was introduced during Kernel 4.7. I went back 
step by step and realized that my laptop needs at least Kernel 4.8. With 
older kernels I cannot start the laptop.



And my point is that bugs are a fact of life, and if you have a bug you
will get it fixed a whole lot faster by the Linux community than you
will by some commercial monopoly. If you want to pay for support, then
you can have someone compile the new kernel for you. You can even pay
people to fix bugs for you. Much as with LyX. You do not have any of
these options with closed-source drivers.


I have good experiences with paid support. If a device is not running 
one will get a fixed driver etc. often within a day. If not, one gets a 
new PC, external cards or whatever. If a big machine is not running for 
24 hours you can easily produce costs up to several thousand €. Then it 
is cheaper to buy another PC and/or other hardware.
However, I could not yet figure out why for example in the field of CAD 
Linux is not used. There is only the company VariCAD offering a Linux 
version and support for it. All others have Win-only software and drivers.


OK, CAD is a special application. But things like filling out a PDF form 
are standard. I have to fill out PDF forms every week. I reported the 
bugs to Evince and Okular 3 months ago and now the problems persist. So 
I cannot say that bugs are fixed quickly. It is OK because the 
developers of these programs are all volunteers like we are. 
Nevertheless it is an example that you don't have an advantage over 
Windows here.
(My workaround is to use the software MasterPDF editor. This works 
perfectly but is not free software. I found some minor issues in this 
program and they fixed it within 2 days. This is great and therefore 
I'll buy the program if I will use Linux daily.)



And of course you can compile the new kernel yourself. I compiled my own
kernel very shortly after I became a Linux user, for a reason not unlike
yours. Compiling things on Linux is so, so much easier than on other
platforms, and compiling the kernel is no more difficult than compiling
LyX.


I spent ages before I could compile LyX. It might be easier on Linux.
But this is not my point, I am looking for an OS that I just can use. So 
with my car example, I just need a car that drives. I don't want to 
fiddle around with motor settings. If a part is broken I can mount e.g. 
a new exhaust system and then continue driving.



Here's how to do it
     # copy the existing configuration
     cp /boot/config-`uname -r`* .config
     # create the new configuration
     make defconfig

> ...

Many thanks, I will try this out. Nevertheless this requires a lot of 
expert knowledge. I hate console commands because I cannot remember 
them. How often would one need to compile a kernel? Maybe once a year. I 
know myself and even after vacation of only 2 weeks I forgot the 
commands. That is how I came to LyX because I could not remember the TeX 
commands. Therefore I need an UI and I think this applies for the vast 
majority of computer users.



https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/47208/what-is-the-difference-between-kernel-drivers-and-kernel-modules
for more info.


Thanks.

This should go to 2.3.x (and possibly 2.2.x) eventually.
