You should probably try to play with LyX -visual and -depth
switches. I remember that on some PC X servers, playing with 'backing
store' settings helped too.

NT-Lyx-1.0.1 startup ??

1999-06-08 Thread Ronald Florence

After some fiddling with the %$!#@ filename mangling that winzip did
in unpacking the binary distribution of NT-lyx-1.0.1, I've gotten it
to configure, finding the local TeX distribution and creating the
various LyX startup files -- just as it does on Unix.  When I run the
`runlyx.bat' script, it gets as far as executing lyx, which issues a
terse message of `BadLength' and exits.

I'd welcome ideas on how to get a local (NT) LyX running on this
machine; it does fine with a remote LyX (from a Solaris box) on the
local X-server.  Thanks,
