So, you can have Lyx wherever you go.
I am working on a bash script that installs TeX Live 2012 (or 2013 if you prefer) manually in Ubuntu 12.04 through 13.04. Having a manual install of TeX Live is nice because it allows for one to have more control over the installation and specifically updating packages (e.g. tlmgr). The script also (optionally) installs all dependencies of the LyX examples and templates. Finally, the script tests that all of the examples and templates are compilable. This way the user can open any template, example, or help document in any language and it will compile. Let me know if you are interested in testing. Scott
