lyxpreview2bitmap.sh script and found a strange (to me) character on the line:
${GS} -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER \
-sDEVICE=${GSDEVICE} -sOutputFile=${BASE}%d.${GSSUFFIX} \
-dGraphicsAlphaBit=${ALPHA} -dTextAlphaBits=${ALPHA} \
-r${RESOLUTION} ${PSFILE} ||What does exactly mean this %d ???
Anyway, after having cancelled this strange thing, the script generates well the ppm file. However, still no output. I checked my preferences and for ppm I have selected display from imagemagick.
Another thing, having written a simple $a+b$ math inset, if I click in the lyx window I get now a crash. Re-writting the %d, it does not crash, I checked 20 times.
Any idea now ?

Hi,
I know, the latex-preview topic is really a FAQ but I can't find the proper solution ...
After installing the preview package(and running texhash), I tried to use it without success. Actually, I get:
shell-init: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
chdir: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.4.5)

I cannot find what directory lyx cannot get ! My temporary directory is fully reachable and exploring it, I found some [0-9]lyxpreview.metrics files but nothing else.
Obviously I tried to reconfigure lyx, in preferences I defined the preview->ppm and a preview->png converters. I also looked at the lyxpreview2bitmap.sh script and found some possible arguments that I tried ... but nothing really happens !
Any hint ?
