missing textclass cv?
Hi.. I'm trying to open a LyX document that was created using the cv layout, on LyX/Mac 1.3.4 on OS X.. I get the error message that the textclass is missing. I see that cv.cls exists in /Applications/LyXbinary.app/Contents/Resources/LyX/tex/cv.cls and cv.layout exists in /Applications/LyXbinary.app/Contents/Resources/LyX/layouts/cv.layout ... but when I do a reconfigure in LyX from the shell, this is what I see: +checking for document class cv [cv]... no Any ideas why this is so and potential solutions? Thanks, nirmal
Re: missing textclass cv?
Underneath LyX Help there is a section about adding classes and other packages. Inside the instructions it makes mention that texhash needs to be run. I am not exactly sure where Ron has set up LyX/Mac local package support but I'm sure Mr. Florence has some better information on this matter. For myself Debian GNU/Linux my stuff goes under /usr/local/share/texmf/ which consists of the following layout: /usr/local/share/texmf/ -ls -R and tex/ underneath tex/ is /latex/ underneath latex/ are my packages in their own directories named exactly like their macro names. memoir has a memoir/ pdfdraftcopy has a pdfdraftcopy/ so on and so forth. At /usr/local/share/texmf I run texhash /usr/local/share/texmftexhash It regenerates what packages are available and includes them inside the ls-R file. Launch LyX and run Reconfigure works for me every time. -Marc On Saturday 26 June 2004 02:15 am, Nirmal Govind wrote: Hi..

I am using Lyx 1.3.4 on SuSE Linux 9.1
I'd say this is a problem with SuSE's change to unicode, but I could be worng
(personally, I have switched off unicode encoding in 9.1).

LyX Xforms Mandrake 10.0 Official
I solved the problem as follows: 1) uninstalled apparently broken libforms 1.0 RPM supplied in the official Mandrake 10.0 distribution 2) installed Xforms-1.0.90 3) installed lyx-1.3.4 4) it worked -Ladislav

Re: missing textclass cv?
Thanks folks for all the help.. I guess I never ran into this problem in Linux... I put the cls file in my local texmf folder (which is in /Users/myhomedirectory/ since it's easier when I do a backup to have all my files in one place) and everything's fine now.. nirmal
