Did you try
http://apt.ling.li/rpms/lyx/
Works for me, although I use the Qt version. But the xforms file is
there as well.

I checked for xforms download, and ran into problems trying to locate
the proper file. The Redhat link for rpm, for example, gave me an
error message that it couldn't change ftp directory. Does anyone know
where I can download Xforms files? Or, should I try to use QT, and
follow the INSTALL directions? I'm using the Gnome GUI, not the KDE GUI.
