To change this, look at the CXX (g++) flags reported by configure, (there's a line written that details how g++ is run; if you don't have it just rerun configure). Then, set the environment variable CXXFLAGS to the list of flags _except_ -g (that's the flag for debug info).

Footnotes appear in the middle of the page
Hi!
I´ve got the problem that footnotes sometimes
appear in the middle of a page.At Herbert´s (very useful) homepage (http://www.educat.hu-berlin.de/~voss/lyx/footnotes.html)
I found the hint to use
\usepackage[bottom]{footmisc}
tomake the footnotes appear at the bottom
of a page. But obviously itdoesn´twork inevery case.
What´s going wrong? I appended asmall example file.
Thanks in advance for answering!
