multi dimensional integral symbols in lyx and latex
It appears that in newer versions of latex and lyx, the symbols \iint and \iiint are unrecognized. I get an error referring to an unrecognized control sequence in both latex and lyx. I should point out that this was not true in prior versions. Art Edwards

bibliography not working in ieeetran
I'm using the ieeetran template in lyx 2.0.2. All citations turn up missing, even though I have used lyx to insert them from the .bib files in the same directory. When I transfer all the content to a REVTeX4 template, all the citations are found correctly. Tell me what other information you would need to help debug this. Art Edwards

That was the problem. The Viewer field was set to xdg-open. I changed it to acroread and it works! Many thanks. Art Edwards
Difficulty viewing pdf output
I receive the following error message: Could not display "/tmp/lyx_tmpdir.T25823/lyx_tmpbuf2/MRS_2012.pdf" The location is not a folder. The pdf file exists and is viewable, just not using the view button in lyx. I tried using the -dgb debug switch from the command line, but this introduced what appeared to be spurious errors.. no generation of pdf. Any help would be appreciated. Art Edwards

lyx 2.0.0 in natty (ubuntu)
I'm wondering whether others have had this error in natty (ubuntu) Due to some error in it, the layout file: AGU-article could not be loaded. A default textclass with default layouts will be used. LyX will not be able to produce correct output. Also, when I try to open a REVTeX4 template, I get The selected document class true requires external files that are not available. The document class can still be used, but the document cannot be compiled until the following prerequisites are installed: revtex See section 3.1.2.2 (Class Availability) of the User's Guide for more information.

encapsulated postcript rendering within lyx
Hardware: Compaz Presario V5000 with 1.5 G of memory, trurion 64 processor Distribution: Ubuntu jaunty Lyx version: 1.6.2 When I load a .eps file, I receive the message: error converting to loadable format. This did not happen in the previous Lyx version (1.5.6) under Ubuntu-intrepid (same hardware). If this has been reported before, could you point me to the bug-report, or to the fix? Many thanks, Art Edwards
