Configuring Lyx
I am trying to configure Lyx 1.1.5 on Redhat 6.2. It brings up the error message that it cannot find the Xpm or Xforms Libraries. I therefore installed the respective RPM's using KPackage but this didn't make any difference. I have checked that these are the versions of Xpm and Xforms needed. Any suggestions? Thanks Tom.
