Hi

In the attached file, I would like to do two things:

1) replace the automatic name Bibliography with Literature and
2) change the style to Section

I know this is possible, but couldn't find the way to do it.

So how can this be achieved?

Thanks,

Rainer

At the very beginning of the document:
\addto\captionsenglish{\renewcommand\bibname{Literature}}
You have to do it this way because you are using babel.


2) change the style to Section

To do that, you will need to copy the declaration of \thebibliography 
from book.cls to your preamble, change it from \newenvironment to 
\renewenvironment, and change the line that makes it a chapter* to one 
that makes it a section*.

Re: LyX andTeX Live: How to find and link a new latex version?

2012-09-05 Thread John Kane 
To David and Rainer,

To continue the saga I renamed my texlive folder in /usr/local to oldtexlive 
and now get :

john@john-K53U:~$ texlive --version
texlive: command not found
john@john-K53U:~$  tlmgr --version
No command 'tlmgr' found, did you mean:
 Command 'vlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe)
 Command 'rlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe)
tlmgr: command not found

john@john-K53U:~$ which latex 
/usr/bin/latex


Interestingly enough when  I do a ls in /bin I no longer seem to see anything 
called latex 


However much to my surprise LyX is still running happily and  the tex 
information shows
/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/akletter/akletter.cls 

so it looks like LyX has found something, presumabley ver.2012 since the old 
path was usr/local/texlive2011.  


Now, presumably I can reinstall a version of tlmgr and have another go at 
installing leadpar. Or should I expect it to have installed automatically with 
ver. 2012?

The worst of all this is that I really don't need leadpar, I just was trying to 
do a LyX sales job on a history graduate student and wanted him to see what 
some of the more specialized packages could do.  Even he does not really need 
it but now it's got me annoyed that I cannot do it.

Also I am likely to need to update some of my packages so I do need to get 
tlmgr working but it's not that urgent.

Anywhat thanks for all the help so far.

tlmgr path add

I would suggest to try:

1) run
tlmgr --version

to see which tlmgr is managing.

2) Then you could try to run

sudo tlmgr path remove

to remove the symlinks - this might remove all symlinks created by the package 
manager as well,
but don't worry about that.

3) go into synaptic and re-ilnstall texlive, which should re-create the links 
by the package.

4) if you want / need texlive 2012, you could add the ppa
https://launchpad.net/~texlive-backports/+archive/ppa/ to your system by using

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:texlive-backports/ppa

and do

If you really need tlmgr, I would suggest to uninstall all texlive versions

OK - then uninstall all texlive installed via synaptic and install texlive from 
their website into
your home directory - then you cen play with it without messing up your system! 
Works nicely for me.

See e.g. http://www.tug.org/texlive/quickinstall.html

but make sure that it installs into your home directory and do not change the 
path - rather use
point 12 from
http://www.tug.org/texlive/upgrade.html
as you can easily remove the links afterwards.

Cheers,

Rainer

Right.  What happened was that the system (not Lyx itself, probably) now 
found the right latex, and that gives the paths to support files like 
that.




Now, presumably I can reinstall a version of tlmgr and have another go 
at installing leadpar. Or should I expect it to have installed

Maybe not.  I have neither tlmgr nor leadpar in my TeXlive 2012.

Problems after upgrading to texlive 2012

2012-09-05 Thread ehud.kaplan 
I have upgraded to texlive 2012 (from texlive 2009) on ubuntu 12.04, 32 
bit.
I did it by adding a ppa for backport of texlive 2012, followed by sudo 
apt-get install texlive and all seemed to go without a hitch.
However, when I tried to compile some Lyx files that have worked fine 
with texlive 2009, I got error messages:

subscript.sty not found,
or
movie15.sty not found.
I ran sudo texhash and reconfigured Lyx, but the errors persist.
I then exported the Lyx file to plain latex and it compiled without a 
problem, including the subscripts.
When I look at the Lyx /Tools/Texinfo and look for Latex styles, I do 
not see subscript.sty.

What is going on?

OK - just one idea - if you look at http://www.tug.org/texlive/upgrade.html it 
shows you the
procedure to install 2012 by hand - BUT DONT DO IT YET!. Point 12 mentions

tlmgr path add

I would suggest to try:

1) run
tlmgr --version

to see which tlmgr is managing.

2) Then you could try to run

sudo tlmgr path remove

to remove the symlinks - this might remove all symlinks created by the package 
manager as well,
but don't worry about that.

3) go into synaptic and re-ilnstall texlive, which should re-create the links 
by the package.

4) if you want / need texlive 2012, you could add the ppa
https://launchpad.net/~texlive-backports/+archive/ppa/ to your system by using

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:texlive-backports/ppa

and do

sudo apt-get update

OK - then uninstall all texlive installed via synaptic and install texlive from 
their website into
your home directory - then you cen play with it without messing up your system! 
Works nicely for me.

See e.g. http://www.tug.org/texlive/quickinstall.html

but make sure that it installs into your home directory and do not change the 
path - rather use
point 12 from
http://www.tug.org/texlive/upgrade.html
as you can easily remove the links afterwards.

Cheers,

Rainer

Right.  What happened was that the system (not Lyx itself, probably) now 
found the right latex, and that gives the paths to support files like 
that.




Now, presumably I can reinstall a version of tlmgr and have another go

Maybe not.  I have neither tlmgr nor leadpar in my TeXlive 2012.

Problems after upgrading to texlive 2012

2012-09-05 Thread ehud.kaplan 
I have upgraded to texlive 2012 (from texlive 2009) on ubuntu 12.04, 32 
bit.
I did it by adding a ppa for backport of texlive 2012, followed by sudo 
apt-get install texlive and all seemed to go without a hitch.
However, when I tried to compile some Lyx files that have worked fine 
with texlive 2009, I got error messages:

subscript.sty not found,
or
movie15.sty not found.
I ran sudo texhash and reconfigured Lyx, but the errors persist.
I then exported the Lyx file to plain latex and it compiled without a 
problem, including the subscripts.
When I look at the Lyx /Tools/Texinfo and look for Latex styles, I do 
not see subscript.sty.

What is going on?

Thanks

Change Bibliography style and name

Hi

In the attached file, I would like to do two things:

1) replace the automatic name "Bibliography" with "Literature" and
2) change the style to "Section"

I know this is possible, but couldn't find the way to do it.

So how can this be achieved?

Thanks,

You have to do it this way because you are using babel.

To do that, you will need to copy the declaration of \thebibliography

OK - just one idea - if you look at http://www.tug.org/texlive/upgrade.html it 
shows you the
procedure to install 2012 by hand - BUT DON"T DO IT YET!. Point 12 mentions

tlmgr path add

I would suggest to try:

1) run
tlmgr --version

to see which tlmgr is managing.

2) Then you could try to run

sudo tlmgr path remove

to remove the symlinks - this might remove all symlinks created by the package 
manager as well,
but don't worry about that.

3) go into synaptic and re-ilnstall texlive, which should re-create the links 
by the package.

4) if you want / need texlive 2012, you could add the ppa
https://launchpad.net/~texlive-backports/+archive/ppa/ to your system by using

Makes sense - as you removed the links o the commands from the path.

This is strange - what gives you

This is strange - what gives you

latex --version

texlive 2011 or 2012?

Is there any texliv installed via synaptic / software-centre?

can you execute

latex --version
?

Why do you need tlmgr?
If you really need tlmgr, I would suggest to uninstall all texlive versions 
installed via
synaptic, and reinstall 2012 from the texlive website.

:-) I know that...

OK - then uninstall all texlive installed via synaptic and install texlive from 
their website into
your home directory - then you cen play with it without messing up your system! 
Works nicely for me.

See e.g. http://www.tug.org/texlive/quickinstall.html

but make sure that it installs into your home directory and do not change the 
path - rather use
point 12 from
http://www.tug.org/texlive/upgrade.html
as you can easily remove the links afterwards.

Cheers,

Rainer

To David and Rainer,

To continue the saga I renamed my texlive folder in /usr/local to 
oldtexlive and now get :


john@john-K53U:~$ texlive --version

No command 'tlmgr' found, did you mean:
 Command 'vlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe)
 Command 'rlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe)
tlmgr: command not found

john@john-K53U:~$ which latex
/usr/bin/latex

Interestingly enough when  I do a ls in /bin I no longer seem to see 
anything called latex


Did you before?  I didn't notice that.  My latex executable is 
/usr/bin/latex.


However much to my surprise LyX is still running happily and  the tex 
information shows

/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/akletter/akletter.cls
so it looks like LyX has found something, presumabley ver.2012 since 
the old path was usr/local/texlive2011.


Right.  What happened was that the system (not Lyx itself, probably) now 
found the "right" latex, and that gives the paths to support files like 
that.




Now, presumably I can reinstall a version of tlmgr and have another go 
at installing leadpar. Or should I expect it to have installed 
automatically with ver. 2012?


Maybe not.  I have neither tlmgr nor leadpar in my TeXlive 2012.

Problems after upgrading to texlive 2012

2012-09-05 Thread ehud.kaplan 
I have upgraded to texlive 2012 (from texlive 2009) on ubuntu 12.04, 32 
bit.
I did it by adding a ppa for backport of texlive 2012, followed by sudo 
apt-get install texlive and all seemed to go without a hitch.
However, when I tried to compile some Lyx files that have worked fine 
with texlive 2009, I got error messages:

subscript.sty not found,
or
movie15.sty not found.
I ran sudo texhash and reconfigured Lyx, but the errors persist.
I then exported the Lyx file to plain latex and it compiled without a 
problem, including the subscripts.
When I look at the Lyx /Tools/Texinfo and look for Latex styles, I do 
not see subscript.sty.

What is going on?

Thanks
EK

"Mystery" solved-- with texlive 2009 I loaded many additional packages, 
which I forgot to load

upon upgrading.  Once I did that, all is well.
