Prosper

2003-02-20 Thread Luis Angel Fernndez Cuadrado
Hi all,

I've been using the Prosper way of making pdf presentations following the 
indications given in Herbert's pages. For the moment, everything is going 
allright because I don't need complex things (fancy steps or transitions, 
etc.). However, I've found a couple of things that I'd like to get some 
information about:

- As installed (per Herbert's instructions), the 'slides (prosper)' document 
type only works when you have 'English (American)' as document language. If I 
try,  for instance, spanish (my mother tongue) I get a lot of compilation 
errors.

-Also, I can only get the slide style that comes from Dekel Tsur's Cluster 
example. If I try to indicate (in the class options from the document type 
dialog) any other slide style, let's say 'frames', I get also a lot of errors 
in the compilation.

Anybody can provide pointers so as how to solve/understand what's going on?

I'm using LyX 1.3.0 (qt-frontend) in a SuSE 8.0 system with KDE 3.1 (if all 
this matters)

Thank you all.

Error converting to loadable format

2003-01-21 Thread Luis Angel Fernndez Cuadrado
Hi all,

I'm faced to a mistery. I have 2 Linux systems, one at work and the other at 
home. Both are SuSE 8.0 and both have Ghostscript 6.53, xforms 0.89 and 
ImageMagick 5.4.2. In both I have compiled and installed LyX 1.2.2 from the 
sources. In both I can see included .jpg figures. However, in the one at work 
I can see the included .eps figures while in the one at home I constantly get 
'Error converting to loadable format' and the figure won't display in LyX.

Which puzzles me most is that recently I installed LyX version 1.3.0pre2 with 
the qt frontend (which, by the way, looks great and has compiled and it's 
been working so far without hassle) and the same thing happens: I can see the 
.eps's in the system at work but not in the system at home.

I'd like to hear suggestions so as to what to check and get the damm thing 
working.

Thanks.
