Re: Question on installation of Lyx from distro and/or over internet
Hi Michael: TeXlive can work because each is in a different folder and you are the one you decide on your route which you work (/usr/local/texlive/2013 or 2016). I think that if you have installed an earlier version of lyx and install later, the lyx executable will be overwritten and the current work anymore. Regards Miguel from Spain On 14/07/16 06:05, Michael Berger wrote: Mageia5's software manager offers to install LyX 2.1 and if done will automatically install Texlive 2013 along with it. I decided to install the most recent versions available and found LyX 2.2 and Texlive 2016 that could be installed over the internet. Thinking of possible conflicts I removed Lyx 2.1 and Texlive2013 and then installed first Texlive2016 (as user) and then LyX 2.2 (as administrator). Meanwhile things are running as I want them to. Question: Would there have been a conflict without prior removal of the old versions? Or putting it the other way around: Would there be a conflict if installing these older versions again using Mageia's software manager and then have both versions installed? PS: I think there is an option to mark packages as "never install" or something. Thanks and cheers, Michael
Re: Updating TexLive2016
Hi Michael: You've tried to do it as root?. If the folder /usr does not have permissions will leave not write anything. I have the 2016 TexLive manager as root and have no problem.

After reading all the documentation that came along plus some info from the internet I am more confused than ever and just do not know how to install tlmgr on my system. Who would be so kind as to advise me (a person of blessed ignorance in this field) how to do that!? I prepared a fresh install of Mageia5 on a separate HD that could be used without damaging my system and data. Thanks and cheers, Michael Hi Michael, If you want tlmgr my guess is you will have to install TeX Live manually, using install-tl. See here: https://www.tug.org/texlive/quickinstall.html If you have trouble, the tex-live mailing list is very helpful: http://lists.tug.org/tex-live I have a script that automates everything and makes things easy, but it only works on Ubuntu. I think it would take a lot of work to adapt it to Mageia5 but just in case you want to see how something in particular is done, it is here: https://github.com/scottkosty/install-tl-ubuntu Best, Scott --

Hi all : When I was working with 2.1.0beta2 through git, appeared Typesetting: Default, and position of each letter, paragraph, border, etc... in the frontend of Lyx, under command buffer. Now I have 2.1.0 and no longer appears. How I can make that information appear? Thanks advanced Miguel
