I compiled lyx by typing ./configure, then make, then make install in
the root of the source directory structure.
I tried an older kernel (2.0.35) and the exact same problem happened.
When executing "lyx -dbg 3" it tell me:
Reading layouts...
LyXSetStyle: parsing configuration...
LyXTextClassList::Read: unable to find textclass file '~/<unknown path>'
Exiting.
Bye.
I also get a popup telling me to check that the file "textclass.lst" is
installed correctly.
When executing "lyx -sysdir /usr/X11/share/lyx -dbg 3", the program
runs, and I can edit files. But when I choose file, view dvi from the
menu, I get a popup that says "Error: Could not change to directory:
/tmp/lyx_tmp561aaa/lyx_bufrtmp561aaa" and "Success" on the next line.
that directory does exist, and I do have full permissions on it.
However, it is empty. That popup occurrs several times, then the
program crashes and tells me I have found a bug in LyX.
Any ideas?

Some code snipped.. .
