Hi All,

I think it's really a Lyx bug in fact.
It says that article, book,... are not available but in the LaTeXConfig.lyx 
these layouts are well recognized!
See attached file..., 

Regards,
Frank.

Objet : RE: [help] impossible to use Lyx with miktex 2.8?

Hi,
I've retried for the 6th time...
Same error : all lyx layouts not available...
Please find attached  the last lyx installation report.
Before I've checked and cleaned all the  register base (Windows XP - FR).
May be it's a problem of the French version?
May be it's a curse problem?
Surely without diagnostic tools inside Lyx I think one cannot find the problem.
I've followed all the instructions people on these list gave to me...
Thanks a lot to all people who tried to help!, but I think may be now it's 
better to give up.
<<rapportInstllationLyx.txt>>

Frank.

Objet : [help] impossible to use Lyx with miktex 2.8?
Hi,
It seems impossible to use Lyx 1.6 with miktex 2.8 on my laptop on windows XP.
Each time lyx doesn't recognize the document classes, saying that the layout 
are not available (article, scrbook,...)
I 've tried 5 installations / desintallations of all miktex and Lyx.
I'am administrator on my laptop
I've downloaded all the available latex packages 
I' ve tried to use the standard lyx installer and the alt one.
I've used each time the reconfigure options of lyx..
Some people said it is a known issue in the mailing list archive, OK but what 
is the solution?, I can't find it.
I 'am on this issue for one week, I am becoming a little bit desperate...
More than that I have on another windows XP PC (desktop) an old mikex 2.7 with 
Lyx 1.6 working perfectly well...
But miktex 2.7 is now not available.
I'am going to test Texlive if it is possible.
Regards,
Frank Meyer.

Inventory of your LaTeX configuration

Automatically generated by LyX (do not edit).

This file describes the different LaTeX add-ons that LyX can handle. Below 
you'll find six sections:

1. Some basic details about your LaTeX installation. In particular, you should 
make sure that your version of LaTeX is recent enough.

2. Some common fonts that LyX knows about. This is rather sparse at the moment.

3. The document classes that should be standard on any LaTeX implementation. 
This section is only here for completeness.

4. Some optional document classes that LyX knows about. If one of these is 
marked as missing (the “Found” item is no) and you need its functionality, you 
can grab it at your nearest CTAN ftp site at the location indicated in the 
“CTAN” item. Note that only detected document classes can be selected as 
document layouts in LyX.

5. The packages that have been stamped “required” by the LaTeX maintainers. 
These ones should definitely be present, but you may not have some of them if 
your LaTeX distribution is a bit old.

6. Some packages that LyX uses when you try to change the margins of your 
document. The detection of these items does not yet affect the options 
available inside LyX.

7. Some common LaTeX packages that you might need with LyX, and you might also 
want to add to your LaTeX installation. The detection of these items does not 
yet affect the options available inside LyX.

Note that most of these packages will be available if you use a modern TeX 
distribution such as TeXLive and MiKTeX. If you decide to install one of the 
missing items, you should tell LyX about it. After the installation, please use 
the menu entry Tools->Reconfigure and reload this file to see if the new 
package was recognized. If the “Found” items read “no”, it means that LyX could 
not do the inventory of your LaTeX configuration for some reason. In most 
cases, you only have forgotten to update the file name database (texhash). 
Check the documentation of your LaTeX distribution for how this is done 
properly.

1 Fonts

1.1 EC fonts

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: fonts/ec

MM Notes: LaTeX does not require the use of ec fonts, however they are strongly 
recommended. The ec fonts are available in a more natural range of sizes and 
allow better hyphenation and kerning than the old fonts such as cmr10. If you 
already have the so-called dc fonts installed, please upgrade to the ec fonts, 
which replace them. They are used automatically if LyX determines that you have 
them installed.

1.2 Latin Modern

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: fonts/lm/

MM Notes: The Latin Modern fonts are PostScript versions of LaTeX' standard 
font (Computer Modern). They aim to become the default LaTeX font eventually. 
We recommend to use them instead of other PostScript versions of Computer 
Modern (like AE). 

1.3 Almost European (AE)

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: fonts/ae/

MM Notes: The AE package provide virtual PostScript versions of LaTeX' standard 
font (Computer Modern). Unless you rely on special characters, we recommend to 
use Latin Modern instead. 

1.4 Eco

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: fonts/eco/

MM Notes: The eco package is used by LyX to access the old style numerals of 
the Computer Modern font family. 

1.5 psnfss

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/required/psnfss/

MM Notes: The psnfss bundle allows you to change the fonts used by LyX to one 
of the 35 classical fonts available on PostScript printers. Currently, the 
support for psnfss is limited in LyX: you can only chose a few combinations of 
PostScript fonts in Layout->Document.

Different versions of psnfss provide different font packages. Even if LyX 
supports the deprecated packages as well, we recommend that you take care to 
have the newest ones installed. A recent psnfss bundle should at least include:

• avant (Avant Garde). Found: 

• bookman (Bookman). Found: 

• chancery (Zapf Chancery). Found: 

• charter (Charter). Found: 

• courier (Courier). Found: 

• helvet (Helvetica). Found: 

• mathpazo (newest Palatino support). Found: 

• mathpple (deprecated Palatino support). Found: 

• mathptm (deprecated Times support). Found: 

• mathptmx (newest Times support). Found: 

• newcent (New Century Gothic). Found: 

• pifont (Zapf Dingbats). Found: 

• utopia (Utopia). Found: 

1.6 fourier-GUTenberg

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: fonts/fourier-GUT

MM Notes: The fourier package provides support for the Utopia PostScript font. 
Contrary to the utopia package that ships with PSNFSS bundle, it also provides 
suitable math fonts. If this package is installed, it will be used instead of 
utopia if you select the Utopia font.

1.7 CM bright

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: fonts/cmbright

MM Notes: CM bright is a sans serif font that also provides nice sans serif 
math fonts.

1.9 Concrete

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/ccfonts/

MM Notes: The ccfonts package provides support for the font that has been 
designed by Donald Knuth for his Concrete Mathematics book, hence called 
concrete fonts.

(IPA). The input of these symbols is provided by LyX's math editor and via the 
Insert->Special Character->Symbols... dialog.

2 Standard LaTeX document classes

The document classes presented in this section are the basic document classes 
provided by LaTeX. In particular, they are all present on your system as long 
as LaTeX2e is installed. When the text indicates that a particular class has 
not been found, this means the layout file supporting this particular class has 
not been found.

2.1 article

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: N/A

MM Notes: The standard document class article is used to type articles or short 
texts. It is the basic LaTeX document class.

2.2 report

MM Notes: The standard document class report is similar to article but is 
slightly more structured (support for different parts).

2.3 book

MM Found:

foils instead if it is available (see [ssec:foils]).

2.6 amsart

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/required/amslatex/classes/

MM Notes: The document class amsart is an alternative to the class article. It 
is part of the AMS-LaTeX package and is used for typesetting of mathematics 
with a look the American Mathematical Society has developed. They recommend it 
for the preparation of manuscripts intended for publication both in the 
Society's books and journals, and also in other mathematical literature. The 
Society requests that published documents prepared with AMS-LaTeX include an 
acknowledgment of its use. LyX support is still limited.

3.15 foils

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/foiltex/

MM Notes: The document class foils (aka FoilTeX) provides an alternative to the 
standard slides class to make transparencies. It allows cross references, uses 
a less ugly font, and is in general much better to use than slides. It does not 
however have some of the advanced features found in the seminar class, which is 
not currently supported by LyX. Note that, due to its somewhat restrictive

at http://www.ieee.org if you intend to use this class. Note that there are 
both IEEEtran.cls and IEEEtran.sty files. You must get the .cls file for use 
with LyX as the .sty file is for LaTeX 2.09 only. Also note that if your 
ieeetran.cls is in lowercase like this example LyX will not find it and you 
should upgrade to a newer version which has IEEE in capitals.

3.39 REVTeX

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex209/contrib/revtex/

MM Notes: This class, which used the REVTeX 3 class, has been superseded by the 
revtex4 class, so you should use that instead. (Old revtex class documents 
should be pretty easy to change to the new class.) If you have to use this 
class for some reason, you should use the file revtex.cls from the tex/ 
subdirectory of LyX source distribution.

3.40 REVTeX 4

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/revtex/

MM Notes: REVTeX 4 is a class used for submitting manuscripts to journals

MM Notes: The simplecv document class is intended to provide a simple yet 
elegant way to write your curriculum vitae (resume). It is rather minimalist, 
but has nice features like bibliography support (useful for academics). This is 
a repackaging of the cv class that has been available with LyX for a long time. 
The change of name has been made necessary by the existence of another cv class 
on CTAN. An example curriculum vitae created using this document class can be 
found in the examples.

3.43 Springer Unspecific Journal

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/springer/svjour/global

MM WWW: http://www.springeronline.com

MM Notes: Svglobal is a format suitable for publication in a Springer journal 
for which a specific style is not provided; i. g., if the journal author 
guidelines at the above Springer site suggest using the svglobal style.  The 
corresponding documentclass files and associated material can be found on the 
Springer site. The layout consists of two parts: svjour.inc (which is generic 
for all Springer journals) and svglobal.layout, which includes svjour.inc and 
is the default style for any Springer Journal without any specific style. You 
can write your own sv<journal>.layout to support any other Springer journals 
(hint, hint!). Note that you need to specify the global extra documentclass 
option which is included in the class defaults.

3.44 Springer Journal of Geodesy

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/springer/svjour/jog

MM WWW: http://www.springeronline.com

4 Required packages

This section contains packages which have been declared as “required” by the 
LaTeX maintainers. You should really consider upgrading your LaTeX setup if one 
of them is not detected.

4.1 array

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/required/tools/

MM Notes: The package array is needed by LyX to be able to output vertical 
alignment other then ''top'' for tabulars.

4.2 babel

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/required/babel/

MM Notes: The package babel allows you to customize your document for your 
favorite language (see the Document->Settings...->Language popup). In 
particular, it handles hyphenation and automatic translation of all labels like 
“Chapter”  and “Table of contents”. This package is not needed if you only plan 
to write in English, except if you want to use non-English quotes.

Your LaTeX installation has hyphenation patterns for the following languages: .

If a language you use is not on this list, you should reconfigure your LaTeX 
installation to include it. For teTeX, this means running texconfig.

4.3 bm

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/required/tools/

MM Notes: The bm package defines commands to access bold math symbols. The 
basic command is \bm which makes its argument bold. The argument may be any 
math object from a single symbol to an expression. If available, ultra bold 
fonts can be accesed through the \hm command (aliased to \heavysymbol). The \bm 
command is similar to the amsmath \boldsymbol command, but the bm version is 
rather more careful in the way it does things. Be aware that this package 
allocates symbol fonts for bold fonts into the normal math version, such that, 
when using other packages that allocate many symbol fonts, they can be 
exhausted. In this case, one can make do with the \boldsymbol command.

5 Paper layout packages

Changing the margins of a document is one thing people like to do. While LaTeX 
offers built-in options to set the margins of the documents, some people feel 
that these margins are too large and want to set them up differently. You can 
use the package geometry for this purpose, but note that for the sake of 
readability, your lines should not contain more than 60-70 characters.

5.1 geometry

MM Found: 

MM CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/geometry/
