Compilation (linking) troubles
I finally managed to get the LyX configure to work without complaints. Now I have troubles when compiling instead. There seems to be something wrong with the linking of libraries, because I get the following message (in the end of the compilation): (I'm trying to install lyx-1.2.0 with XForms 89) (...a lot of similar lines *cut*) ~/lyx-1.2.0cvs/src/frontends/xforms/form_maths_matrix.C:75: undefined reference to `fl_set_object_callback' ~/lyx-1.2.0cvs/src/frontends/xforms/form_maths_matrix.C:76: undefined reference to `fl_end_form' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [lyx] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/merlot/pg/pmxas/lyx-1.2.0cvs/src' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/merlot/pg/pmxas/lyx-1.2.0cvs/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/merlot/pg/pmxas/lyx-1.2.0cvs/src' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Does anybody recognise this error?

More bibliography question
Dear LyX-users, I have set the following command in preamble to reduce the space between bibitem, but nothing to happen. \renewcommand{\@openbib@code}{\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}} I have modify the unit from 0pt to negative values, but the result is the same... Is there another possibility to change the space of bibitem? TIA, Wayan
