After your recent comment, this issue seems to have been solved. I'm not sure if the following is LyX's problem or not. If I open LyX from the terminal (on Ubuntu 12.04) and copy the User Guide and exit, the LyX window closes but LyX still hasn't exited (the terminal is still busy). After about 5 seconds I get the following message on the terminal "QClipboard: Unable to receive an event from the clipboard manager in a reasonable time" and then LyX exits. Now if I start LyX again and exit (without doing anything) I again get the pause and the QClipboard message. The only way I can get rid of this is to restart the computer or running the following command: killall gnome-settings-daemon Note that the copy also issued this message to the terminal: Warning: latex had problems compiling 0lyxpreview.tex Can anyone reproduce this? Is this a Qt bug? An Ubuntu bug? Scott
