Questions for you. 1. Which version of LyX are you using? LyX 1.3.4 allows you to use a textclass fro which the LaTEX files are not installed. (Obviously, you can't actually typeset your document, but you can write the text.) 2. Can LaTeX find your installed nih.cls file? Ie, does a simple .tex document that uses it (as described in the docs on the dartmouth web site) compile. > I have also noticed a directory /usr/share/lyx/txt/ which has > several .cls files in it. Nothing to do with lyx. Maybe created by whoever packaged your version of LyX. If you run lyx from the command line and Edit->Reconfigure, you should see a whole heap of information. Does any of this help? -- Angus
