I searched the lyx home page but couldn't find
any information on how to report errors so I
am reporting my bugs here.
advice on where/how to report errors appreciated.
I am running lyx on solaris and unfortunately
I have limited resources available.
Thus crashes are fairly common because I
run out of memory.
This often happens when I run lyx and xfig concurrently.
This now happens more often since I upgraded
from 1.0.4 to 1.1.5.
This occurs especially often when I work with foilTex
documents. Actually I switched to working on
foilTex documents at the same time I switched to lyx-1.1.5
so possibly the problem is mainly with foilTex documents.
If this were not bad enough. Lyx now crashes
in ugly ways.
Often it will crash and leave the lyx window open.
I then cannot remove the window.
Often when this happens I cannot restart lyx without
crashing immediately. I then have to logout and
then login again.
I may have to go back to using lyx version 1.0.4.
Note that lyx 1.0.4 often dropped cores and occasionally
kicked me off the system. But lyx 1.1.5 is becoming
difficult to use at all.
Note that I run lyx on one sun machine remotely from another.
This is because the machine I am on has limited resources.
The remote machine has plenty of resources so it suprizes
me that I have so much difficulty.
Thanks

p.s. I can send you core dumps (lots) if you want.
