I don't have any idea about Mageia6. But if reconfigure does not make "biber" appear, biber is not installed---at least not in at a place where LyX can find it. > I have Mageia 6, KDE You may try in a terminal the commands `biber --help` and `which biber` to see whether it works and where it is installed (if it is). Ultimatively, you should look for help with someone knowing Mageia and TeX at Mageia. Günter
