You can get the source from ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/lyx-1.5.5.tar.gz (this is the link from www.lyx.org). Just download it and save it somewhere. Then extract it (I just right-click and say Extract Here). Then open a terminal and browse to the extracted directory and 'do the rest (./configure, etc)'. In Ubuntu you will have to do: ./configure make sudo make install Also, try to search in Synaptic for 'aiksaurus' the libaiksaurus-dev package should show up. It gives you access to the thesaurus in LyX. /Bob
