Thanks for your suggestion. Since you CAN use algorithm2e, I know
that a solution exists.
Actually, I had the problem with 1.5.5 and then upgraded to 1.5.6. I
am guessing that there is something else in the original imported
LaTeX file that is triggering this code to be written. I'll see if I
can track it down.

This seems to be a problem with version 1.5.6, since I have used
algorithm2e with Lyx 1.5.5 and had no problem. Since I do not have
installed v1.5.6 (don't know why :-)), I cannot say if you can do
anything to solve your problem. Take a look at Document Settings to
see if there is any option concerning algorithms. Unless anyone else
gives a solution, I suggest that you file a bug in bugzilla.lyx.org.
A possible workaround is to install v 1.5.5. I think it should be
able to coexist with your current version.
Cheers,

I'm importing a student's PhD dissertation into LyX to use the
"track changes" function for markup. Unfortunately, there seems to
be a conflict between some LyX default behavior and the
algorithm2e.sty package:
! LaTeX Error: Command \algorithm already defined.
Or name \end... illegal, see p.192 of the manual.
I used the command line to translate LyX to LaTeX,
lyx --export latex WahbaSummary.lyx
and found the following code in the .tex file:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% LyX specific LaTeX commands.
%% Because html converters don't know tabularnewline
\providecommand{\tabularnewline}{\\}
\floatstyle{ruled}
\newfloat{algorithm}{tbp}{loa}
\floatname{algorithm}{Algorithm}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% User specified LaTeX commands.
If I comment out the \newfloat and \floatname commands, then the
error goes away. Is there a way to get rid of them without
manually editing the .tex file?
