Ok. I followed these instructions and got 4 .deb files (I didn't include the gtk frontend) which I installed after deinstalling and cleaning the 1.3.6 packages that come with KUbuntu 5.10. Of the 2 executables 'lyx-xforms' looks horrible but works ok and 'lyx-qt' does not load. When I try to load it with the '-dbg init' option this is what I get: ----- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lyx-qt -dbg init Locale es_ES could not be set Setting debug level to init Debugging `init' (Program initialisation) Checking whether LyX is run in place... no <package> binary_dir /usr/bin/ system_support /usr/share/lyx/ build_support user_support /home/luis/.lyx/ locale_dir /usr/share/locale/ document_dir /home/luis temp_dir /tmp home_dir /home/luis </package> Initializing LyX::init...

This is the same I get for the executable obtained when I compile the program in the old ./configure... -> make... -> make install sequence, as I posted in my reply to Holger's answer. I'm beggining to think that this must be related either to KUbuntu's version of the qt libraries or to my particular instalation. I'll keep researching on this... Thanks again. -- Dr. Luis A.
