Yes, it's time to sort "Unsorted" (I've been working on code that 
automatically generates a table of contents).

That's a good idea, go for it!   :-)
(I'll start it off by creating the page and adding it to the 'sidebar')

That's also a good place to give general tips for how to troubleshoot the 
installation (checking if a latex package is installed, that you should do 
'reconfigure' etc).

Ok, here's the page:
        http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/LyX/Troubleshooting

Btw, it's amazing how quick it is to do something like that. I did in 
about one minute, including fixing the 'sidebar' and adding it do the 
'Documentation' page.
