Thank you in advance.
* Could you tell us what version of LyX you are using? * Are you using a temporary directory? To check: Using the Qt frontend look in the Paths pane of the Edit->Preferences dialog. [x] Use temporary directory [/tmp ] [Browse...] Using the XForms frontend look in the Input->Paths tab of the Edit->Preferences dialog. Temp dir: [x] [/tmp ] [Browse...] I'm very surprised by the generated filenames too. lyx -dbg graphics should dump a whole heap of information to the console to help you diagnose the problem. Angus
