The best advice is probably to read the fancy headings documentation. :-)
With that said when I use koma-script I defined the headings for normal

\fancypagestyle .
Something like:
\fancypagestyle{plain}{%

The LyX wiki did not help me. Some web pages refers to a CJK package to install manually, but I am not positive. I don't really know if my problem if is a setting, or a missing package. Help greatly appreciated. I am not sure if I can help but here it goes. :-) There is a new version of texlive, version 2011 as it can be seen at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/TeXLive in order to install it for Fedora 15 you need to install as root: # rpm -i http://jnovy.fedorapeople.org/texlive/packages.f15/texlive-release.noarch.rpm The advantage of this approach is that it gives the most recent texlive version. In case you still have problems could you, please, send us (privately to me iff you wish) a small document that shows this problem and I will compile it to see if the problem persists. -- José Matos
