It is strange -- I was running LyX on P120 without much problems. You should certainly run xforms version though, because KDE has really no sense on such computer (read: the problem is Qt, not LyX). > 1 - Is there a lighter version of LyX or a lighter program that works > just like it?

You can probably convert through pure LaTeX, but I believe that difference in programs (WYSIWYG v. WYSIWYM) is so big, that you can as well write in pure txt (or LaTex -- it is not so difficult and Emacs with AUCTeX should run on your computer without much problems). > 3 - Is there any other solution to this problem?
