I made Lyx find texlive 2011 binaries, by runnning it from the command prompt. Nonetheless, the problem is still there:
[0] Config.pm:253> INFO - This is biber 0.9.4 [0] Config.pm:256> INFO - Logfile is 'Tesis_Maestro.blg' [1] biber:112> INFO - === Fri Aug 26, 2011, 14:51:50 [56] Biber.pm:197> FATAL - Cannot find control file 'Tesis_Maestro.bcf'! - did you pass the "backend=biber" option to BibLaTeX? Ideas?
