that worked, now that it is installed though it keeps on locking up every time I try to do any kind of output. Print to ps or dvi viewer, whatever, it takes off and never comes back.

Re: RH6.2 can't get lyx to install
I figured out that it actually wasn't locking up, I just thought it was because I didn't realize it would take 10 minutes to generate the dvi output from a decently sized document. Is that normal?
