Maybe this is an Xforms bug, but it's worth looking into.
I have several PC's on my network running XWinPro 5.2 from Labtam
Finland Ltd (www.labf.com). This is a relatively inexpensive Xserver
for the MS Windows environment.
When running LyX for the first time, through XWinPro, I cannot get the
pop-up window that asks to create a new directory called ".lyx". The
program simply sits there waiting for input, and NOT running the
"configure" script.
This is not a problem if I am on the actual UNIX machine (a Solaris 2.7
system), using the native Xserver, nor does it appear to be a problem
when running LyX on Linux machines, but through the Windows Xserver.
I can manually create the directory, and run "configure" from within
that directory, and everything works just fine. It's only the first
time pop-up window that seems to have problems.
I am running LyX 1.1.4pre3, Xforms 0.88, and xpm 3.4 libraries.
