Hi. Thanks for LyX which I think is an awesome piece of software!

Are there any introductory screencast tutorials that will show a complete 
beginner how to use LyX to do some basic eiting tasks, and then how to generate 
the appropriate DVI and PDF output for the edited document please?

Something that will also show how LyX can generate the contents page, and 
update that as the user edits the .lyx source file would be handy.

I think the tutorial on the website is far too technical and maths related, for 
a LyX newbie that just wants to create a nice PDF text document.

Kind Regards,

Keith Roberts

Not a screencast, but try LyX Essentials [1], including the .zip that
contains the corresponding .lyx file, and Help  Tutorial. Otherwise,
once you get at a minimum familiar with LyX, go to File  New from
Template and try these out. Also look into the Examples dir.
