Custom made layouts from 3.6 can be problematic under 4.1

 I have a self compiled 1.4.0 on my debian system and the print menu comes

You can also change the spool command from 'lp' to 'kprinter' if you use KDE
and get the very nice Kprinter dialog.

Thank you both.  This worked to bring up LyL with its new interface. 
Yum, yum!

I still have a serious problem with my files, which I need to resolve
soon.  The issue I had mentioned about the enumeration still exists.  I
will post this under a separate Subject, though.

Thank you again!

The menu structure changed, so what you need is probably elsewhere.

Also the structure of the setup files changed somewhat. Try moving your .lyx
directory from your home directory, it may solve some of the problem.

The document stuff is under Document->Settings
