I removed the version of biber I had previously installed. jcredberry@2e14-200305:/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf/tex/latex$ biber -v biber version: 0.9.4
But Lyx is still looking for textlive 2009 (which is also installed). Do you know how can I make it to look at texlive 2011 (yes, I reconfigured several times after installation)?
