Re: debian and the latex file structure
First, if you'll go to http://packages.debian.org you can see at the bottom a form to search for file names in packages, specifically for a4.sty you can find that tetex-extra includes a4.sty, just apt-get install tetex-extra and you'll be fine. .dtx and .ins are the latex package, you need to run it through latex and they will produce the .sty file and anything else necessary. * Alexis Wiasmitinow [EMAIL PROTECTED] [010911 10:14]: Hi if I want to make a A4-small margins format, lyx (or latex) says file a4.sty not found. I know from the latex configuration file that the package is not installed. so I tried to get it from ctan.tug.org but there is only a a4.dtx and a a4.ins file. so where do I get the a4.sty file? I got lyx from debian by apt-get, and so I have no idea what is the system between all the folders I have in my /usr/share/texmf directory. so what has to be put where? what is the debian package with a4.sty in it? the geometry package would also be nice, but my problems are the same than above... thanksAlexis Wiasmitinow -- Baruch Even http://baruch.ev-en.org/

I'm using the sun5t latin 1 keyboard. I got the following problem : I can't make an ê in lyx. pressing simultaneously ^ and e gives me an e. In fact the ^ key seems to have no effect. Using xev to show the key I got KeyPress event, serial 20, synthetic NO, window 0x281, root 0x2b, subw 0x0, time 3699913641, (158,468), root:(727,555), state 0x40, keycode 71 (keysym 0x1005ff01, SunFA_Circum), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 characters: I believe your problem is with your X keyboard mapping. And can be fixed by using xmodmap in your X startup file (~/.xinitrc and/or ~/.xsession). I'm not a keyboard expert and I rarely use accented characters however. I used xkeycaps (http://www.jwz.org/xkeycaps/) to set my Scroll Lock key to make the SunFA_Circum keysym. After doing so xev reports similar to what you give but I was unable to do anything useful with the key. I then set it to the dead_circumflex keysym (under the ISO submenu in xkeycaps) and I was able to get ê by typing Scroll Lock e (*not* holding scroll lock down but releasing if before typing the e). I recommend xkeycaps as a useful tool when doing things with keyboard setup under X windows. There is lots of useful information about keyboard mappings in the xkeycaps manpage. In fact the it mentions SuSE Linux having many problems with their default keymap. For the rare occasion when I need accented or special characters I use a compose key (the Multi_key keysym mapped with an unused modifier to one of the otherwise useless winblows keys on my keyboard with an xkeycaps produce xmodmap file). So for an ê I type Composee^. Assuming you use XFree86 then the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/iso8859-1/Compose lists the available compose and dead key combinations. Substitute the appropriate encoding for iso8859-1. For example grepping for ecircumflex gives: Multi_key e asciicircum : \352ecircumflex Multi_key asciicircum e : \352ecircumflex Multi_key e greater : \352ecircumflex Multi_key greater e : \352ecircumflex dead_circumflex e : \352ecircumflex I did notice that some of the other encoding's Compose files lacked lines for ecircumflex for some reason (again I know nothing about these iso8859 encoding things). So in summary: - get xkeycaps from http://www.jwz.org/xkeycaps/ - edit the keysym of your existing SunFA_Circum key making sure it has an otherwise unused modifier - have xkeycaps write the file, it will use ~/.xmodmap-$HOSTNAME - xkeycaps will tell you to add something like xmodmap ~/.xmodmap-`uname -n` to your ~/.xinitrc and/or ~/.xsession files If you want to write the .xmodmap file by hand it will look something like this: keycode 0x47 = dead_circumflex add Mod3 = dead_circumflex (assuming the key doesn't already have a modifier and Mod3 isn't already used).

caption in longtables

Underlined text walks right off the page
I have a short sentence of underlined text following a short normal sentence at the beginning of a paragraph, on a normal page of text. One would think the underlined text, which remains together instead of linebreaking, would all go on a line of its own. But no, it goes at the end of the normal text and therefore walks off the right margin and clear off the page. Is this a bug, or is it intended. If a bug, is it just a 1.1.6fix1 thing, or it in all versions? I've included a short file to demonstrate the problem.

Re: debian and the latex file structure
First, if you'll go to http://packages.debian.org you can see at the bottom a form to search for file names in packages, specifically for a4.sty you can find that tetex-extra includes a4.sty, just apt-get install tetex-extra and you'll be fine. .dtx and .ins are the latex package, you need to run it through latex and they will produce the .sty file and anything else necessary. * Alexis Wiasmitinow [EMAIL PROTECTED] [010911 10:14]: Hi if I want to make a A4-small margins format, lyx (or latex) says file a4.sty not found. I know from the latex configuration file that the package is not installed. so I tried to get it from ctan.tug.org but there is only a a4.dtx and a a4.ins file. so where do I get the a4.sty file? I got lyx from debian by apt-get, and so I have no idea what is the system between all the folders I have in my /usr/share/texmf directory. so what has to be put where? what is the debian package with a4.sty in it? the geometry package would also be nice, but my problems are the same than above... thanksAlexis Wiasmitinow -- Baruch Even http://baruch.ev-en.org/

I'm using the sun5t latin 1 keyboard. I got the following problem : I can't make an ê in lyx. pressing simultaneously ^ and e gives me an e. In fact the ^ key seems to have no effect. Using xev to show the key I got KeyPress event, serial 20, synthetic NO, window 0x281, root 0x2b, subw 0x0, time 3699913641, (158,468), root:(727,555), state 0x40, keycode 71 (keysym 0x1005ff01, SunFA_Circum), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 characters: I believe your problem is with your X keyboard mapping. And can be fixed by using xmodmap in your X startup file (~/.xinitrc and/or ~/.xsession). I'm not a keyboard expert and I rarely use accented characters however. I used xkeycaps (http://www.jwz.org/xkeycaps/) to set my Scroll Lock key to make the SunFA_Circum keysym. After doing so xev reports similar to what you give but I was unable to do anything useful with the key. I then set it to the dead_circumflex keysym (under the ISO submenu in xkeycaps) and I was able to get ê by typing Scroll Lock e (*not* holding scroll lock down but releasing if before typing the e). I recommend xkeycaps as a useful tool when doing things with keyboard setup under X windows. There is lots of useful information about keyboard mappings in the xkeycaps manpage. In fact the it mentions SuSE Linux having many problems with their default keymap. For the rare occasion when I need accented or special characters I use a compose key (the Multi_key keysym mapped with an unused modifier to one of the otherwise useless winblows keys on my keyboard with an xkeycaps produce xmodmap file). So for an ê I type Composee^. Assuming you use XFree86 then the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/iso8859-1/Compose lists the available compose and dead key combinations. Substitute the appropriate encoding for iso8859-1. For example grepping for ecircumflex gives: Multi_key e asciicircum : \352ecircumflex Multi_key asciicircum e : \352ecircumflex Multi_key e greater : \352ecircumflex Multi_key greater e : \352ecircumflex dead_circumflex e : \352ecircumflex I did notice that some of the other encoding's Compose files lacked lines for ecircumflex for some reason (again I know nothing about these iso8859 encoding things). So in summary: - get xkeycaps from http://www.jwz.org/xkeycaps/ - edit the keysym of your existing SunFA_Circum key making sure it has an otherwise unused modifier - have xkeycaps write the file, it will use ~/.xmodmap-$HOSTNAME - xkeycaps will tell you to add something like xmodmap ~/.xmodmap-`uname -n` to your ~/.xinitrc and/or ~/.xsession files If you want to write the .xmodmap file by hand it will look something like this: keycode 0x47 = dead_circumflex add Mod3 = dead_circumflex (assuming the key doesn't already have a modifier and Mod3 isn't already used).

caption in longtables

Underlined text walks right off the page
I have a short sentence of underlined text following a short normal sentence at the beginning of a paragraph, on a normal page of text. One would think the underlined text, which remains together instead of linebreaking, would all go on a line of its own. But no, it goes at the end of the normal text and therefore walks off the right margin and clear off the page. Is this a bug, or is it intended. If a bug, is it just a 1.1.6fix1 thing, or it in all versions? I've included a short file to demonstrate the problem.

Re: debian and the latex file structure
First, if you'll go to http://packages.debian.org you can see at the bottom a form to search for file names in packages, specifically for a4.sty you can find that tetex-extra includes a4.sty, just apt-get install tetex-extra and you'll be fine. .dtx and .ins are the latex "package", you need to run it through latex and they will produce the .sty file and anything else necessary. * Alexis Wiasmitinow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [010911 10:14]: > Hi > > if I want to make a A4-small margins format, lyx (or latex) says "file a4.sty > not found".

Why do you need to use pdflatex ? You can generate the PDF using ps2pdf. If you really want to use pdflatex, then convert all EPS files to PDF using epstopdf, and when you insert an EPS file to the lyx document, enter its name without its suffix, namely for foo.eps, write foo in the dialog.

Or try tex2pdf on lyx or tex file (don't remove extensions then). (final) bash or new (beta) perl port available at http://tex2pdf.berlios.de/ Uses pdflatex to provide similar functionalities as ps2pdf, deals with multipart docs (input/include), manages the needed translations from eps to pdf, uses original bitmaps when available, leaves the original files untouched, provides thumbnails on request.

On the subject of font packages, a couple of questions: 1. Is there any documentation for the lucida packages? I've been trying sticking things in my preamble, but the results are pretty hit or miss. 2. Does anyone know how to get shadow and outline effects? I assume these are raw TeX commands, as I can't find any LaTeX command to do this. Robin

I've noticed that you use a table in your document. However, Linuxdoc doesn't support tables. If you need tables, use Docbook. (also the bug I mentioned above does not occur with Docbook, so you won't need to compile lyx yourself).

And can be fixed by using xmodmap in your X startup file (~/.xinitrc and/or ~/.xsession). I'm not a keyboard expert and I rarely use accented characters however. I used xkeycaps (http://www.jwz.org/xkeycaps/) to set my Scroll Lock key to make the SunFA_Circum keysym. After doing so xev reports similar to what you give but I was unable to do anything useful with the key. I then set it to the "dead_circumflex" keysym (under the ISO submenu in xkeycaps) and I was able to get "ê" by typing (*not* holding scroll lock down but releasing if before typing the ). I recommend xkeycaps as a useful tool when doing things with keyboard setup under X windows. There is lots of useful information about keyboard mappings in the xkeycaps manpage. In fact the it mentions SuSE Linux having many problems with their default keymap. For the rare occasion when I need accented or special characters I use a compose key (the "Multi_key" keysym mapped with an unused modifier to one of the otherwise useless winblows keys on my keyboard with an xkeycaps produce xmodmap file). So for an "ê" I type <^>. Assuming you use XFree86 then the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/iso8859-1/Compose lists the available compose and dead key combinations. Substitute the appropriate encoding for iso8859-1. For example grepping for "ecircumflex" gives: : "\352"ecircumflex : "\352"ecircumflex : "\352"ecircumflex : "\352"ecircumflex : "\352"ecircumflex I did notice that some of the other encoding's "Compose" files lacked lines for "ecircumflex" for some reason (again I know nothing about these iso8859 encoding things). So in summary: - get xkeycaps from http://www.jwz.org/xkeycaps/ - edit the keysym of your existing "SunFA_Circum" key making sure it has an otherwise unused modifier - have xkeycaps write the file, it will use ~/.xmodmap-$HOSTNAME - xkeycaps will tell you to add something like "xmodmap ~/.xmodmap-`uname -n`" to your ~/.xinitrc and/or ~/.xsession files If you want to write the .xmodmap file by hand it will look something like this: keycode 0x47 = dead_circumflex add Mod3 = dead_circumflex (assuming the key doesn't already have a modifier and Mod3 isn't already used).

caption in longtables
Hi, In my document I have a table which is longer than one page, so I can´t use a float-environment. If I use a longtable-environment instead of a float, how can I place a caption in lyx? In Latex you simlpy add \caption{blabla}. I use lyx 1.1.6fix2. Peter Kutne [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Underlined text walks right off the page
I have a short sentence of underlined text following a short normal sentence at the beginning of a paragraph, on a normal page of text. One would think the underlined text, which remains together instead of linebreaking, would all go on a line of its own. But no, it goes at the end of the normal text and therefore walks off the right margin and clear off the page. Is this a bug, or is it intended. If a bug, is it just a 1.1.6fix1 thing, or it in all versions? I've included a short file to demonstrate the problem.

IEEE Latex Configuration
Hello LyX'rs 1. I was not able to compile 1.1.6.fix3. Message: collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault] make[3]: *** [lyx] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/lyx-1.1.6fix3/src' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/lyx-1.1.6fix3/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/lyx-1.1.6fix3/src' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 2. The reason why I tried to compile fix3 is that I need to submit a paper to IEEE, so I did the following: a. I download the file: ieeetran.tar.Z from ieee.org b. Gunzip it: I get IEEEtran.cls (in capitals!) c. I did a texhash in the directory just created: /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/IEEEtran/ d. In lyx I run reconfigure and restarted it. e. So I check my latex configuration file, but IEEE were not found! So, i repeat the whole process, but: a. I download IEEEtran_v15.cls, from: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/IEEEtran/ and rename it to IEEEtran.cls c., d., and e. were the same :-( Suggestions...
