[dundee] New(ish) user needs help with pybliographic

[Richard Earl]

Hi,

I'm Rich. I'm fairly new to using Linux, but I infinitely prefer it to XP 
or any other MS OS. Lyx was a fantastic program for writing my 
thesis this year, and pybliographic was fantastic for keeping track 
of and citing references. This was on SuSE 8.1 on a Fujitsu-
Seimens Intel 2.4 GHz, 256MB RAM, 80 GB hard disk.

SInce upgrading to SuSE 8.2 pybliographic no longer works. I tried 
installing an earlier version of recode, and I also tried a HOWTO I 
found which involved installing earlier version of Gnome and Python 
alongside the newer ones, then telling pybliographic to use the 
older ones (something about it not being ported to GTK 2.0 yet).

None of this has worked so far, and every time I try a different 
reference manager it either won't install or won't connect to LyX for 
me. I'm wondering if anyone else has the same problem, and if you 
can help me.

Cheers,

Rich
