Lyx Question

[Cyber Source]

Never having used or heard of lyx, I thought I would try it out. So I 
yummed it, checked it out on my FC4 box and I saw that when I ran it 
from a command line the first time, it was bitching about 
"(evince:23247): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Cannot load module 
`/usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/libcdda.so' 
(/usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/libcdda.so: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directory)
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion"

So, I googled that a bit and seen it's related to gnome-vfs2, so I 
yummed that and it upgraded a bunch of stuff. Then it looked different 
on startup (splash was different) and I was able to load an image, 
export it as a *.pdf and it was all fine, no bitching, etc.. I could 
send the pdf I made if you would like to see it.
