I just tried to install Lyx from the 1.3.6-1 RPMs.
At the moment could someone note on the web site that LyX is not
installable with the RPMs on stock FC4 with the teTeX from the TeX
Collection DVD.
Is anyone out there using LyX on FC4?

Well, I installed LyX with yum install lyx on FC4.
But that installs 1.3.5 by default.
I had to reinstall FC4 and haven't reinstalled LyX.
So I can test 1.3.6 pretty easily. Sometimes it matters
where you get your rpms from. I will do it now and
follow up pretty soon.

I checked that I had the rpms on my fat32 transfer file
drive before starting this. They have li in the filename.
I also notice that I downloaded qt and xforms; one
of which also needs to be installed. Did you install
the qt rpm? lyx-qt-1.3.6-1.li.fc4.i586.rpm or
lyx-xforms-1.3.6-1.li.fc4.i586.rpm and the main LyX file:
lyx-1.3.6-1.li.noarch.rpm
I will test this by installing the noarch first. I think 586
means mmx support and does not cause a problem.
I'm pretty sure I've read 1.3.6 works with FC4.
Will let you know,
Stephen
