I ve been trying to make lyx work with Red Hat 7.1 ( 2.4 kernel ).
I got the latest src.rpm. It looks like it needs xforms as a prerequisite.
I got the .88-2 of xforms and finished the compilation. ( Though xforms was an src.rpm it didn t look like it had any actual src files. I didn t see any actual compilations ).
But when lyx comes up after the first dialog box it core dumps. Though I searched the web I could not get a solutions. ( I found a reference mentioning the same problem ).
My first priority is to make lyx work in RedHat 7.1. Is there any way at all. Is there anybody out there who has done this successfully.
Also people seems to be thinking xforms as crude. I also understand that it s not a GPL d software ( which might explain why it didn t do a compile for an src.rpm ). Given these is there a reason why lyx team decided to use it.
Thanks
