Did you check to make sure that it was actually recognized by LyX?

Re: problems with class and/or layout?
well, the problem is solved...
I obtained the original Elsevier class files from the conference website
http://www.jems08.ie/publications.php (they provided elsart.cls,
elsart5.cls).
Now that I downloaded them straight from Elsevier I have no more problems...

relyx issue: got CLS, wants LAYOUT
Hi people, I need help in the addition and use of a new class. A forthcoming conference just provided a package for us to write our papers.

The problem: when importing hmm2005.tex, relyx says: reLyX directory is: /usr/local/share/lyx/reLyX reLyX, the LaTeX to LyX translator. Revision date 2003/01/20 Reading LaTeX command syntax (hmm2005.tex: Splitting Preamble Creating LyX preamble Cannot find layout file hmm.layout in dir(s) /root/.lyx/layouts /usr/local/share/lyx/layouts at /usr/local/share/lyx/reLyX/ReadCommands.pm line 267, PREAMBLE line 12.

Document classes
Version should be sufficient. However, I am not sure this is the right package. I have here additionally a packages te_latex (SuSE 7.x) installed that contains e.g. the latex binary and amsbook.cls. to be exact, I have: rpm -qa|grep tetex tetex-afm-1.0.7-47 tetex-fonts-1.0.7-47 tetex-dvips-1.0.7-47 tetex-1.0.7-47 tetex-latex-1.0.7-47 tetex-xdvi-1.0.7-47 tetex-dvilj-1.0.7-47 Further checking, I saw: rpm -ql tetex-latex-1.0.7-47|grep article ... /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/article.cls /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/article.sty So?

lost path
What I really HATE are those errors coming and going without reason
(it happens with my car engine too, sometimes...)
I don't understand TeX, doesnt want to, and thats why I use LyX.
I had to curse the heavens to install the bloody Revtex4 package, God knows
how but I made it.
I wrote a whole article with it. Now, 2 days after - not having done anything
I swear to my TeX install - I got some 10 errors when viewing it postscript.
Then I notice the dreaded:
... Package graphics Error: No driver specified ...
saying that I need a graphics.cfg file.
Yet a file /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/config/graphics.cfg exists! Well, I try
creating a graphics.cfg file in my doc directory, with \ExecuteOptions{dvips}
inside
Then again I get an error saying that dvips.def cannot be found - yet it is in
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/graphics/dvips.def .
I copy it in the doc directory,
and finally
it works
Now:
what exactly happened?
I swear I didnt change anything, why I had to do all this kinda steps???
I got the impression that somehow TeX/Latex/LyX didnt know exactly the paths
anymore, but that's just an impression ...
any idea? I'd hate to follow again all those steps...
thanks

Re: graphics conversion for preview
Strange as it may seem, I have the opposite problem: I often happen to change a figure (usually I use: insert wide figure Float, and inside: insert graphics), but my change isnt reflected in Ghostview, both by a preview postscript or by an update postscript: I have to exit and restart LyX! Seems strange and opposite to what you see. BTW I have 1.2.1 too. Bye Alessandro On Tuesday 26 November 2002 09:29, Peer Frank wrote: Hi !

Document classes
Version should be sufficient. However, I am not sure this is the right package. I have here additionally a packages te_latex (SuSE 7.x) installed that contains e.g. the latex binary and amsbook.cls. to be exact, I have: rpm -qa|grep tetex tetex-afm-1.0.7-47 tetex-fonts-1.0.7-47 tetex-dvips-1.0.7-47 tetex-1.0.7-47 tetex-latex-1.0.7-47 tetex-xdvi-1.0.7-47 tetex-dvilj-1.0.7-47 Further checking, I saw: rpm -ql tetex-latex-1.0.7-47|grep article ... /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/article.cls /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/article.sty So?

lost path
What I really HATE are those errors coming and going without reason
(it happens with my car engine too, sometimes...)
I don't understand TeX, doesnt want to, and thats why I use LyX.
I had to curse the heavens to install the bloody Revtex4 package, God knows
how but I made it.
I wrote a whole article with it. Now, 2 days after - not having done anything
I swear to my TeX install - I got some 10 errors when viewing it postscript.
Then I notice the dreaded:
... Package graphics Error: No driver specified ...
saying that I need a graphics.cfg file.
Yet a file /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/config/graphics.cfg exists! Well, I try
creating a graphics.cfg file in my doc directory, with \ExecuteOptions{dvips}
inside
Then again I get an error saying that dvips.def cannot be found - yet it is in
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/graphics/dvips.def .
I copy it in the doc directory,
and finally
it works
Now:
what exactly happened?
I swear I didnt change anything, why I had to do all this kinda steps???
I got the impression that somehow TeX/Latex/LyX didnt know exactly the paths
anymore, but that's just an impression ...
any idea? I'd hate to follow again all those steps...
thanks
Alessandro

Re: graphics conversion for preview
Strange as it may seem, I have the opposite problem: I often happen to change a figure (usually I use: insert wide figure Float, and inside: insert graphics), but my change isnt reflected in Ghostview, both by a preview postscript or by an update postscript: I have to exit and restart LyX!

After you installed elsart and did a texhash and reconfigure on LyX.
Did you check to make sure that it was actually recognized by LyX?
Meaning 'article (Elsevier)' is actually listed in
Document->Settings->Document Class or Help->LaTeX Configuration
Section 4.11 says elsart is found.

yes:

Re: problems with class and/or layout?
well, the problem is solved...
I obtained the original Elsevier class files from the conference website
http://www.jems08.ie/publications.php (they provided elsart.cls,
elsart5.cls).
Now that I downloaded them straight from Elsevier I have no more problems...
thank you!

relyx issue: got CLS, wants LAYOUT
Hi people, I need help in the addition and use of a new class. A forthcoming conference just provided a package for us to write our papers. It contains: hmm.cls flushend.sty hmm2005.tex i.e. a class file, a style file, and an example file - so I guess (LyX made me lazy, so my understanding of the Latex world of classes is a bit vague). The problem: when importing hmm2005.tex, relyx says: reLyX directory is: /usr/local/share/lyx/reLyX reLyX, the LaTeX to LyX translator. Revision date 2003/01/20 Reading LaTeX command syntax (hmm2005.tex: Splitting Preamble Creating LyX preamble Cannot find layout file hmm.layout in dir(s) /root/.lyx/layouts /usr/local/share/lyx/layouts at /usr/local/share/lyx/reLyX/ReadCommands.pm line 267, line 12. Compilation failed in require at /usr/local/bin/reLyX line 76, line 12. Exited due to fatal Error! now: why do I need a hmm.layout, when I already have the cls file? I know for sure that hmm2005.tex compiles correctly under latex, so it is a relyx issue... thanks for any help...

LyX <-> LaTeX2e
I got lyx ver 1.0.0, and installed the latest teTeX distribution, that gives on the command line latex: This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (C version 6.1) ** Starting LyX's configure, I obtain (snipped out the "yes" answers): checking for a LaTeX2e program... +checking for "latex"... not useable +checking for "latex2e"... not useable <...> checking for ChkTeX... +checking for "chktex"... no <...> What? NOT USEABLE? My teTeX directory contains - among the others - two dirs, named "latex" and "latex209". I suppose the first one is LaTeX2e (but I don't know how to check). What's wrong? If the latest teTeX distribution doesn't give you LATEX2e, where to get it? How to make LyX see that I really got latex?? Thanks for any help P.S.
