Lyx doesn't support everything in latex, there is no automatic support for new packages. You (or someone) have to write a .layout file first. Also, if you have a suggestion for another way to design a good looking cv, please share. Of course, you can use any latex package from lyx, but you have to use the tex button and enter latex commands yourself. Helge Hafting

Also, if you have a suggestion for another way to design a good looking cv, please share. Well, for what it's worth here's one example cv, mine, using just the standard article class, the fancy headers package, horizontal lines under the headings, and the list environment.

(The layout file tells LyX how to display parts of the document in the GUI, what environments to provide, etc.) LyX ships with layouts for a quite a few common classes, and a few uncommon ones, but not the two you listed. There's a section in the documentation on how to gin up a layout file, but it's not for the faint of heart. /Paul
