Question 2
How can I start Lyx1.3.4 which I see included on installation?
If you can't find it in the menus try with typing lyx in a konsole.
I tried in a Bash shell but no good
Command not found
That's strange. Are you sure it's installed:
markus@mrk-fujibox:~$ dpkg -l|grep lyx
ii lyx 1.3.4-1 High Level Word Processor
ii lyx-common 1.3.4-1 High Level Word Processor - common files
ii lyx-qt 1.3.4-1 High Level Word Processor - Qt frontend
Try the command lyx-qt
If it's not in the menus you could try updating them with update-menus as user.
I've tried that and other combinations to fire it up - no joy
I use Lyx on windoze so I thought it would be a good starting point on Knoppix - something i'm familiar with.
Delved a little deeper:
Any way - all appears loaded other than what you would call "lyx.exe" on windows.
Plus there is no Latex support anyway
So all in all it's space wasted on the CD IMHO
Great pity because it's the latest version of Lyx - someone has obviously gone to some trouble with a compile - but sadly not far enough.
Not sure where that leaves me - at the moment, back with Windoze I suppose
running grep
ii lyx-common 1.3.4-1 High Level Word Processor - common files
so it is there somewhere!!
Sorry, not a clue as to why the frontend is missing. Perhaps kghostview somehow uses it.
As root,
apt-get install lyx-qt
apt-get install lyx
then as yourself,
lyx-qt
This is the usual way to install software which you don't yet have
I'll give it a go and get back to you
Cheers
I get this
root@ttyp0[knoppix]# apt-get install lyx-qt
W: Not using locking for read lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock
E: Unable to write to /var/cache/apt/
E: THe package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened
and the same for
apt-get install lyx
