Re: how to see what LyX is thinking?

You could use emelFM2 as the file manager from which you open your LyX documents. It has an integrated output pane that is, for practical reasons, a terminal. And you can see all LyX mindwork in it. When not needed, you could simply hide the output pane. I would believe Ubuntu has a (somewhat

Thanks for all of the answers; they are all what I was looking for. Perhaps Günter's solution is the most convenient for my setup... the errors have been there waiting for me in .xsession-errors all along. Thanks again. Jay
