Re: KDE upgrade + accents
Hi again, Relating the KDE upgrade + accents issue, I've installed this RPM for FC2: lyx-1.3.5-1fc2_qt.i386.rpm And no success with accents issue. Then, I've installed the XForms RPM: lyx-1.3.5-1fc2_xforms.i386.rpm And all accents issues have been *solved*. So it seems an issue with QT libraries. Indeed I prefer the QT frontend, but at least now I can write again with LyX :-) Regards, José Abílio Oliveira Matos wrote: On Wed, Oct 06, 2004 at 12:00:41AM +0200, Juan Luis Chulilla wrote: I had that problem with suse 9.1 and KDE 3.2.

A partial solution is to set the keyboard layout to US English w/ ISO9995-3 in the Control Center Regional Accessibility - Keyboard Layout). That gives (in Lyx) e.g. é and è, but not ë or ê (these still come out as ¨e and ^e). However, you will also lose all accents in all other programs... An additional bit of information is that since the upgrade to KDE 3.3.0 Lyx has lost its accents also if I run it under any another window manager (Gnome, xfce4 or fluxbox).

I am using Fedora Core 2, with kde 3.3.0 and lyx works as it should. There were some reports before about this, but I don't honestly remember the outcome.

Re: KDE upgrade + accents
I run SuSE 9.1 Pro. I've used Lyx for quite a while with a Spanish keyboard and an English overall locale, but now, after doing apt dist-upgrade and getting KDE 3.3.0 working, I can no longer type accents in Lyx: typing an accent plus a vowel gives exactly that: an accent plus a vowel, side by side. When I compiled from source, Lyx complained about not finding keyboard map iso8859-1 in ~/.lyx/preferences. This time, vowels + accents gave... nothing. I'm back to the SuSE rpm. I found the same problem in KWord, but not in OpenOffice nor in Abiword. Qt trouble? Trouble is, I use Lyx... Pablo, Some days ago, another person reported the same problem. Thus, I would like to ask whether somebody here (in the list) has not experienced the same problem _under_ KDE 3.3. Should one postpone the upgrade to KDE 3.3? Thanks in advance, Paul
