Thanks Dekel,

3 questions:

1. How do I find out which XForms I have?
2. How did you come to suspect XForms?
3. What's XForms? :-)

By the way, I fixed my immediate problem by substituting konqueror for vim in 
my index-making script, which looks like this:

rm -f $1.aux
rm -f $1.dvi
rm -f $1.idx
rm -f $1.ilg
rm -f $1.ind
rm -f $1.log
rm -f $1.tex
rm -f $1.toc
lyx --export latex $1.lyx
latex $1.tex
makeindex $1.idx
konqueror $1.ind $1.ilg

Then I cut and paste $1.ind into $1.lyx, and repostscript. 

The reason I use the script is I have Mandrake 8.0, the one with the bug that 
doesn't automatically generate an index off a LyX index list (thanks to the 
list for making me aware of the problem and solution).

Thanks

Steve
