Hello, Thanks to everyone who offered help.
The LyX 1.0.1 from potato will install with no problems on slink. I also downloaded and compiled the source directly from the LyX web site with no surprises. I am more concerned about my growing dependence on apt and dpkg. In the past I would have first tried to compile the source myself and install it. Now I seem to go out of my way to find a .deb package of the software. What's happening to me? -- Jim Foltz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ACORN techie <http://www.acorn.net> AOL/IM Jim Foltz
