Well, the latest *supported* version is 1.6.2. But I am pretty sure the *latest* version is: http://gmatht.homelinux.net/xp/pub/lyx_1.6.x.30798-1_amd64.deb Note that installing files from third party websites has the same problems as windows, is generally discouraged: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg61342.html However, it works here. It installs lyx to /usr/local rather than /usr so you could still run your old lyx with Alt-F2 /usr/bin/lyx Why do specifically want the latest version?
