To be honest, I not much of a beta-tester... I am only using version 1.6.5 because it's in the repositories for Ubuntu Lucid. > > > I have reviewed the post on April, 22, 2009 by Michael Solis Chacon and the > > reply by > > Ignacio García, but I was unable to get it working: I did translate > > the .modules and .inc files, but I don't know how to make LyX use them. > > > > > Please tell me precisely what you did. > > Richard > > I tried to mimic the solution offered by Ignacio Garcia for Spanish. In this mail: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg73409.html ... he provided an archive containing seven .inc and .modules files. I downloaded them.

I expected LyX to use them automatically, but I must be missing some point. -- Daniel CLEMENT
