Hi, I'm using CJK-LyX with Japanese on SuSE. It works fine. There are rpm for everything necessary (CJK-LyX, fonts, input ...) available for SuSE. On Mike Fabian's (maintainer of the CJK-version of SuSE) homepage there is plenty of information about every aspect of installation and configuration, which is also for other distributions very helpful.
Have a look at: http://www.suse.de/~mfabian/suse-cjk/suse-cjk.html Hope it helps Gerhard Schuck [EMAIL PROTECTED]
