- Hello,

- When I start Lyx the background colour is changed to green for seconds.

Sound like you have 8 Bits per Pixel.  run 'xdpyinfo' and look for a
line that says "depth of root window:"  This will tell you if you have
8, 16, 24, 0r 32 bits per pixel.

If this is the problem there is not much you can do about it without
increasing the bits per pixel which probably means upgrading your
video card but it might help to:

1. Shut down Netscape.  It try to grab a lot of the color slots.
2. Go to Edit->Preferences->Look and Feel->Misc and turn off Show
   Banner.
