Whatever the case, I can get back to work on my thesis now. :) } } Have you tried recompiling LyX with the new libc?

When I recomipled LyX to see if that would fix things, I noticed that ld was giving a warning about libc.so.3 and libc.so.5 potentially conflicting. It hadn't ever been a problem before, but it doesn't seem like the safest arrangment. With the symlink in place, ldd reports that only libc.so.5 is being used, and everything seems to be okay. -Patrick Patrick L.
