I'm putting together about a 20-page help doc for pdf and html output using 
the linuxdoc (article) template.

I like the linuxdoc pdflatex output (bookmarks, links, standard fonts etc) but 
can't force a page break at the start of a new section. I've tried the Layout 
| Paragraph setting and inserting a \pagebreak TeX code (cribbed from 
somewhere via Google). The first has no effect and the second just seems to 
embed the literal text of the code I type. I believe the code is correct, 
because if I export to Latex and manually add the code I get a page break 
(but no TOC etc). Google and the mailing archives don't seem to have anything 
dealing with this particular problem.

I'm guessing the SGML style-sheet for linuxdoc is the issue, but since I know 
next to nothing about SGML or TeX I'm out of my depth there.

I've tried DocBook and book templates, but the pdf output doesn't seem as 
nice. Should I just accept I'm trying to make linuxdoc do something it isn't 
supposed to? 

Versions: redhat 8.0, lyx 1.2.3 (rpm)
