Hi, I tried to install powerdot package following the installation advice from the help menu of lyx.
I am using Mandrake 10.1. I unzipped the powerdot files into /usr/local/texmf/tex/latex/powerdot Then use texhash to udate latex but when I use kpsewhich tex powerdot.cls it shows no path for the file. One thing I could not understand (and this could be the source of the problem) is where to put the lines (as mentioned in the lyx help) TEXMFLOCAL =/usr/local/texmf TEXMF = {$HOMETEXMF, !!$TEXMFLOCAL, !!$TEXMFMAIN} I have also put powerdot.layout file in .lyx/layout. On reconfigruing lyx it says powerdot not installed. Any help will be greatly appreciated, Subir
