These are the 'article.layout', 'book.layout', etc files that are
distributed as part of lyx. They contain information on how lyx
should show 'section', 'subsection' etc on the screen. They are
_nothing_ to do with latex.

These are the latex 'article.cls' etc files. They define how the
document will be typeset on the page when running it through the
latex compiler.

As explained above. If you look in ${PREFIX}/share/lyx/layouts, (where
${PREFIX}/bin/lyx is your installed executable), you should find some
66 layout files. I append the list that comes with the cvs version of
lyx-1.3.x.
