This file does not exist. Use g-brief-de.layout or g-brief-en.layout instead, they both use the g-brief document class. I think you can call reLyX with reLyX -c g-brief-de myfile.tex myfile.lyx If that does not help, copy g-brief-de.layout to g-brief.layout (but that would make the resulting document nonportable). You might also want to have a look at tex2lyx (see http://wiki.lyx.org/LaTeX/LatexToLyx, because reLyX is rather limited), but that would have the same problem and the same solution: tex2lyx -c g-brief-de myfile.tex myfile.lyx Georg
