It looks to me as if maybe your textclass.lst file is from an older installation. I'd recommend moving your +AH4-/.lyx directory somewhere else, and letting LyX generate a new one. You could also try starting LyX from a terminal with: +AKAAoACg- +ACY-gt; lyx -userdir /tmp/lyxtmp to generate a temporary user directory, and see if that helps. If so, we know where the problem is.

These can be installed from CTAN, worst case. In Fedora, one can do: +AKAAoACg- +ACY-gt; sudo yum install texlive-revtex texlive-revtex4 I don't know if there's an equivalent in Ubuntu. Richard
