However, today in trying to use LyX: the history: ====== 1-under Debian lenny I upgraded to Lyx1.6.2 (using a debian Lyx1.6.2 package). Running a document (koma book) I got this error: GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript (this message is constantly repeated) 2-I was adviced to replace Ghostscript 8.62 by Ghostscript 8.64. Since it was not available under lenny, I used Debian squeeze, but things got worse because I muddled up my debian lenny linux. 3-Therefore I installed LyX 1.6.3 hoping that this would help. It did not. In running my document I get again: GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 and after a long run lyx disappears and I get: lyx: SIGSEGV signal caught Sorry, you have found a bug in LyX. Please read the bug-reporting instructions in Help->Introduction and send us a bug report, if necessary. Thanks ! Bye. the situation: ======== I will now run it again under bug-reporting and report on it. Before I do it I have tested the Introduction to LyX under help and get wolfg...@wolfgang:~/Desktop$ lyx -dbg Intro-x.lyx Setting debug level to Intro-x.lyx GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript GPL Ghostscript 8.62: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 In contrast to my document it stops putting out these errors (only those shown above) and LyX does not break down. There is no output in Latex protocoll. Where would I find the debug report? the question: ======== is there anybody in the list who uses Debian lenny and LyX either 1.6.2 or later svn versions successfully? Is she/he using Ghostscript 8.64 and from where can I get a Debian package? Thanks for your attention Wolfgang
