Thanks, Uwe, for your reply, but I somehow doubt that it will work. If I
uninstall TeXLive and MiKTeX completely, and all other Latex/Lyx stuff, I will
just reproduce the situation I had before I've installed everything. And the
alternative installer was the installer I started with. I guess I'll give it a
last try if we don't find any other way.

But is there no way to find out how or where LyX is looking for all the Latex
packages or point it to specific locations? I guess thats the problem...
