Hi there,

Since the Ubuntu repositories are very far behind in the LyX version I
installed 1.5.2 from the source. It was the first program that I have
compiled on my machine so I had some hassles getting the packages
sorted out but once that was done the only thing that failed in the
./configure file was determining the size of wchar_t. I eventually got
it from a c++ program made to print out the size of a wchar_t
variable. The line I ran to configure it was: ./configure
ac_cv_sizeof_wchar_t=4 and all else went smoothly.

I am delighted to see that the mathmode now displays the greek
characters in the LyX window and the upgrade also means that some
images that didn't display in DVI are now showing.

Hope this feedback is helpful

Cheers,
michael
