LyX supports many more classes than anyone would ever need and, more importantly, than a standard LaTeX installation would install. So there's not really anything more to fix, unless you want to use one of those classes. In that case, you just need to install the relevant LaTeX files. And actually, you can *use* the class within LyX. You just won't be able to compile. Richard
