Sorry for bothering you all, but I did this with the package aa.cls and
still it doesn't work.
I mean, I created the /usr/share/texmf.local/tex/latex/aa, copied aa.cls,
edited the texmf.cnf file, run texhash, then Options->Reconfigure(d) on
Lyx, but still the style does not show up after restarting. Actually, I
do have the (original) aapaper.inc and aapaper.layout files into the
/usr/share/lyx/layouts.
Actually I never succeeded in adding any style to the installed lyx
configuration, what is my error? Please, tell me something! I'm going
nuts! :-(
Thanks in advance
