It seems that we have _explicit_ code to swap the order of the two libraries only for cygwin (this was a patch from Kayvan, I seem to remember). So I guess the solution is to remove this bogus special casing. JMarc

On another note, I've seen greek pdf/ps files on some systems that look terrible on-screen but the print-out is excellent. I personally use kghostview for viewing both ps and pdf file because it presents better-looking fonts on both greek and latin chars.

Bullets in itemize
Dear Lyx'ers, I'm trying to change the bullets used in the itemize environment (Layout->Document->Bullets), but for any change I can do, I always get the same "-", independantly of the depth ! I'm running lyx1.2.3. What should I try to make it work ? Many thanks.

Re: greek documents chores in Lyx
Alright, I'm going crazy... I created my own kmap and a modified iso-8859.cdef under .lyx/kbd where greek characters were stated for what they are (that is TYPED as greek chars). I load lyx and behold, lyx types greek chars on-screen when the language is defined as greek. Unfortunately, it also types english in greek... thus I have only managed to revert the problem, not solve it. I then press - by error, instead of preferences - reconfigure and, behold^2, Lyx no more cares about my greek modifications. I re-reverted the problem while the mods that originally reverted it are still present!!! So, I feel obliged to ask this: WTF?!!??? Anyone got some ideas and a couple of tranquilisers?

If you want to do this, you'll have to use xforms-LyX. Things will change once LyX uses unicode internally (slated for the current development cycle.) > Anyone got some ideas and a couple of tranquilisers? -- Angus

Also I had to re-install tetex-base, tetex-bin and tetex-extra after upgrading Debian from Woody to testing. And this gave me some problems.. like tetex-extra supposedly needs perl-tk but I wasn't able to install perl-tk cos perlapi-5.6.1 was needed which I couldn't find.. so I had to force the install of tetex-extra.. nirmal

The problem might be in the xforms 1.0 library. I compiled it with gcc 3.2 and made the shared libraries. xforms 1.0 doesn't compile out of the box under cygwin. I had to modify the configure files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/Config. I guess something is screwed up. Anyone got a patch for xforms1.0/cygwin or a pre-compiled binary? Thanks! Max

If you install LyX from the source, it doesn't put cv.cls in the correct place (this is a known bug). You need to copy it into TEXMF/tex/latex/, and run texhash.

vertical space in itemize environnement
Does anybody know how to change the size of the vertical space between items in an "itemize" environnement ? Nicolas Roy
Re: Bullets in itemize
Hello. I had exactely the same problem with the "french" package. I read that lyx load this package AFTER the definitions of bullet symbols, and this cancel the definitions. I solved this problem by writing the following line in the preamble : \usepackage[french]{babel} For you : try \usepackage[italian]{babel} Nicolas Roy Le lun 24/02/2003 à 15:49, Nicolas Ferre' a écrit : > Dear Lyx'ers, > > I'm trying to change the bullets used in the itemize environment > (Layout->Document->Bullets), but for any change I can do, I always get > the same "-", independantly of the depth !
