Hello, today I have presented a talk about lyx here. I think that we got more users. :-)
I tried to update then my tree and compile to be current. I got only crashes, so I have decided to start with a fresh tree. In this case I have tried to load the Introduction from the documentation menu. This is what I get with gdb: [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread -1209652928 (LWP 32255)] void BufferView::Pimpl::update(bool, bool)[fitcursor = 0, forceupdate = 1] buffer: 0 void BufferView::Pimpl::update(bool, bool)[fitcursor = 0, forceupdate = 1] buffer: 0 Detaching after fork from child process 32257. lyx: /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.3/../../../../include/c++/3.4.3/bits/basic_string.h:626: typename _Alloc::const_reference std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::operator[](typename _Alloc::size_type) const [with _CharT = char, _Traits = std::char_traits<char>, _Alloc = std::allocator<char>]: Assertion `__pos <= size()' failed.
