OK - I did a complete reload of my system to Ubuntu Studio. Everything worked fine, including LyX, but I decided to "upgrade" it and it broke just like the old one did!!! Thats twice on two different Ubuntu versions, both of which were more or less clean with respect to TeX and stuff. I only played with the drivers and audio and stuff (hence moving to Studio).
Here's what Lyx 2.1 says ... Due to some error in it, the layout file: could not be loaded. A default textclass with default layouts will be used. LyX will not be able to produce correct output. -------------------------------------- The layout file: extbook could not be found. A default textclass with default layouts will be used. LyX will not be able to produce correct output. ---------------------------------------- The module basic has been requested by this document but has not been found in the list of available modules. If you recently installed it, you probably need to reconfigure LyX. That's 3 dialog boxes of errors. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1329082 Title: Lyx loses keystrokes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lyx/+bug/1329082/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
