I run into this problem too. I installed texlive2010 and lyx 1.6.7 under my directory. By tlmgr, I installed IEEEconf.cls. "kpsewhich tex IEEEtran.cls" shows "/home/jczhang/usr/local/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/IEEEtran/IEEEtran.cls" When I click Lyx's Tools--> Tex Informantion, I can see lyx has found IEEEtran.cls "Help-->About Lyx" shows Library directory is ~/usr/share/lyx. I can find layouts/IEEEtran.layout under this directory.
I run Lyx Tools-->Reconfigure several times, but in "Document class " drop list, it is still "Unavailable : artical (IEEEtran)" Any idea?
