Hey, has anyone had any problems with Lyx freezing up on shut down? I've been having trouble with this for a little while. I'm using Lyx 1.5.1, on an intel based mac. This makes me a little nervous as when I check my system monitor it shows that the cpu is getting pretty toasty and LyX is using about 50-60% of the cpu. Anybody have any thoughts?
There had been an occasional problem in the 1.4 series (seemingly fixed with 1.5) with LyX/Mac crashing on quit, but I take it that's not what you mean. You mean that you have LyX running when you shut down the computer, and LyX hangs, stalling (and so ultimately cancelling) the shutdown. Right?
I haven't had that problem, but you might check Console.app (even after you've restarted your Mac) to see if anything pertinent is written in the log file. Without being able to reproduce it and without more diagnostic info, it's hard to know what's going on.
