Dear Paul and LyX-friends,

good, but where do I find the LyX generated .aux file?
Thank you very much again,
bernhard

Start by checking Tools > Preferences... > Paths. The "Temporary directory" shown there will be your starting point. (On Linux, this is normally /tmp.) In that directory, look for a directory named "lyx_tmpdir.<something random>" and move there. In that directory, look for "lyx_tmpbuf0" if this is the only document you have open. If you have multiple documents open, there will be "lyx_tmpbuf1", "lyx_tmpbuf2" etc., and you'll need to figure out which is the right one. The .aux file will be in there.

Paul
