In LyX Document->Settings->Document Class does 'article' show as 'Unavailable: article'? If so then either you don't have 'article.cls' installed on your computer through the texlive packages or LyX is not recognizing the path to texmf* folders. If you have article.cls installed in one of the /opt/local/share/texmf* directories then the path needs to be added to Tools->Preferences->Paths->PATH prefix so that LyX will recognize the files installed there. You should just need to add /opt/local/share to the list of paths separated by a semi-colon and then reconfigure LyX. /Bob
