I'm afraid i wasn't quite correct. There is no latex support for estonian,
using texconfig to edit language.dat
there is _no_ line about estonian to uncomment and in
/usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/hyphen/ no estonian hyphenation file exists.

But as i said, i _can set_ the language to estonian in LyX and it works
basically (month names, "table of contents" etc are in estonian). Therefore
LyX seems to have some idea about estonian afterall. I looked around and found
files that seem to define content naming:
/usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/babel/estonian.(ldf && sty)
But do these files also define something that may result in wrong
hyphenation?

If they do, they obviously are not correct. How can i get LyX to do no
hyphenation at places where it's not explicitly allowed by me?
