Hi José,

 To put this into perspective this tools is just one of the several that lyx
 can use if present. Other examples are ht2html, elyxer (when we package this
 in fedora), inkscape, tgif, xfig, grace and a lot of other converters that can
 be used to convert from one format to the other when they are present.

Lyx in Fedora 12

[Dr. Gyorgy Pota]

Dear Users,

Lyx did not show any eps figures in a freshly installed Fedora 12 
system. Running Lyx in a terminal revealed that convert was 
unsuccesful. Finally it turned out that ImageMagick was not installed 
for  Lyx although I installed Lyx via yum, which, in principle, installs 
everything necessary. I was so angry, I almost went back to a well-known 
non-free op. system and to its famous word processor. :-)
