Hello all,
I'm hoping this is as simple a problem as my other recent query. I
would like to use biblatex to generate a bibliography, but I'm running
into trouble. On my Ubuntu 13.04 machine running LyX 2.0.7, I have
tried to follow the instructions on the wiki (
http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Biblatex) to little success. I have copied
the text of the biblatex.module file (
http://wiki.lyx.org/uploads/BibTeX/biblatex.module) and saved it to
/home/myusername/.lyx/layouts (which was otherwise empty-- I'm not
sure if that's normal). I then reconfigured LyX and restarted. When I
tried to load the module Biblatex-citation-styles, I got an error
message: Error reading module biblatex. I appreciate any insights!
You have presumably made a mistake in copying the file. Better just to
save the file from the web directly into your ~/.lyx/layouts/ directory
(which will be empty until you put something in it), then reconfigure.
If you still get an error, start LyX from the command line. Then you
will be error messages which we can use to debug.
