Looks like 'texlive full' is somewhat misleading. Don't worry, simply install 
texlive-bibtex-extra.

Then buy your spelling checker an extra large (regular) coffee, since it was

Paul,

Missed both.

Thanks,

Must not have been sufficiently cafinated when I did this.

TIA,

Hi,

I installed Lyx but an error message pops up when I try to lauch it 
(see pic attached): "the code cannot be executed because 
Miktex2009-png.dll was not found. To solve the problem, try to install 
the program."


I tried to reinstall it but nothing changed. What can I do?

Thanks,

Edoardo


Did you try the MikTeK package manager? According to a comment here 
, 
the DLL file is part of the miktex-jpeg-bib-2.9 package. Is that installed?

No doubt you should follow Kornel's suggestion. However whenever 
something like this happens to me, I get on synaptic and install every 
texlive thing except full texlive.

Thanks, Kornel and John for your help, which I appreciated. John, does 
it make sense to remove texlive full if I have it already installed or 
does it affect also things I need for texlive to function fully under lyx?
