Hi
I have the same problem as documented here (also Ubuntu 10.4 but Lyx
1.6.5) : can't include a graphic if on a samba share.
The error message is not very verbose:
Package pdftex.def: Error File (file path....)
The path is:
/media/S/.../pdf/Chap_1_Fig_1_cer_prices.pdf
The pronostic of P Rubin seems verified, in the sense that the file does
not seem to be copied into the /tmp/... folder.
Clara, could you resolve the problem in the meanwhile? Any idea?
Thanks!

Hi,
I am using Lyx 1.6.7 on Ubuntu 10.04. I have a*document* with several figures
in
*pdf* format. The*pdf* files are stored in a*mounted* windows share.
The*document* is
stored in the same share. When I try to make a*pdf* from the*document* I get
an
error "Package*pdf*tex.def Error: File 'O_media_H....". If I move the*pdf*
files
to any other*drive* (e.g. external hard*drive*) it works fine. I tried
to*create* a
dvi or ps, but I get the same type of error.
What is the full error message for one of the files, and exactly how is
the file path entered into the graphics widget in LyX? LyX needs to
copy all included files to the temp directory (deliberately fiddling
with their names), and chances are the files from the Samba share are
not being copied correctly, but the question is why.
