If there is a path, >>then the .fig file must be placed on exactly the same path >>on each computer where you try to use lyx. Sure, I attached both the .lyx and the .fig files in the bug page. Just download (e.g. in /tmp) the .lyx file as (e.g.) platypus.lyx, the .fig file as (exactly) platypus.fig and check the path to clipart/platypus.eps in the .fig file (did not attach this one, it *should* be in any LyX installation, /usr/share/lyx/clipart with Debian, /usr/share/local/lyx/clipart here on Solaris). -- Jean-Pierre
