Hello,

I've recently installed Lyx 1.3.5 on Windows XP and I have been
exploring my options. Under the "Examples" I chose chessgame.lyx
and was able to see most of the display, except the diagrams of
board positions. I received an error message of "Lyx missing Tex
class "chess", not able to produce output." Clicking on the missing images, I 
did see 'you need lyxskak.sty and the skak package from CTAN'. Do I need that 
and is it *nix only. I think I have it and I
copied uskak.fd to the directory holding maps with config.ps
I also get the Textclass errors from the New symbols.

It seems odd to me that a Lyx example would be included that
relied on odd Miktex files, so I thought it could be that the needed
file didn't get unpacked with Lyx?  In Win XP, I used File -->
Open --> Examples --> chessgame.lyx to produce the error.

Regards,
Stephen
