Hi guys, I am trying to get lyx working on cygwin so that I can work on my thesis from both linux and windows if I need to.
I first tried the tetex package distributed with cygwin. I works on small files. If I throw my thesis on it, it just won't go. The errors are something like "tex capacity exceeded....". I then tried "pfTex" or TexLive. That's Windows native. I have big trouble to get it work. First of all, it is missing many basic files like setspace.sty. Also it has a strange koma-script package that needs scrlfile.sty and it doesn't even have it. When I run reconfig from lyx within the cygwin shell, I saw some errors.I am not sure if it is possible to just drop in the lyx files from a linux system to expect work in that environment. I have all my paths the unix-way, eg. "/usr/...". Can anyone give me advice on which one I should fix? Should I fix the tetex package comes with cygwin? If so, how do I fix that error: "tex capacity exceeded....". If the other one is better, anyone had experience with that pfTex? Thanks. Max
