Hi, I have lyx1.1.6fix4 installed using rpm in my Redhat 7.2. Whenever I insert a figure (eps figure), the only thing that shows up on the screen is the box, with the file name of the file, and the word "rendering . . . ". Although it shows up fine when I view it using DVI or print it. Just wondering why is this happening?
Secondly, I 've had hard time to use latex in lyx. I tried to use latex as an interchageable formate between Maple, lyx, abiword, and files from Scientific workplace, but most of the time, when I import to Lyx, it's failed. On another time, it will read the file, but wih and error, thus whenever I tried print or view DVI, it will give that error box with read caption, that I can't fix. I don't know Latex, thus I am always stuck at that point. Not sure which programs is faulty when import/export latex, but I just though someone might have insight. Third, is it better to compile the tar.gz, or install using rpm in my Redhat 7.2 system? I am trying to use lyx for my thesis now, and haven't had much luck with it. Thanks for any reply / information. Reuben D. Budiardja
