If the memoir class was installed after LyX, you need to do Edit-Reconfigure in LyX so that LyX knows it's there. If that's not the problem, verify that memoir.layout exists in the LyX layout directory. /Paul
FIXED: Re: memoir (and other classes) unavailable
It turned out I just needed to Edit - Reconfigure and restart LyX. I think this normally would not have been necessary, except that when I upgraded my workstation to AMD64, and effectively changed Linux distributions in the process, I pulled the old hard drive out of my 32-bit system and placed it in the new one (along with /home/amax/.lyx/*). I believe memoir was not installed on the old system, and that is why the reconfigure was necessary. Thanks, Paul.
