I am running RH 5.2 kernel 2.2.7 and I have tried both lyx-0.12 and
lyx-1.0.3pre2 and I get the following two errors:
1. When i type lyx i get an Alert window with the following error
message:
LyX wasn't able to find it's layout descriptions!
Check that the file "textclass.lst" is installed
correctly. Sorry, has to
exit :-(
I get around the problem by typing lyx -sysdir /usr/local/share/lyx
(from the man page)
2. When I load a file I cannot view it with viewdvi, or postscript view.
I get the following Alert three times:
Error: Could not change to directory:
/tmp/lyx_tmp11766aaa/lyx_bufrtmp11766aaa
Success
I suspect this has to do with improper configuration but any help would
be appreciated!
TIA,
Clive.
