I’ve installed and created Lyx pet file for Puppy Linux OS. Lyx is an open source wysiwyg editor front-end for tex/latex file documents. If you have tex/latex files you may need this Lyx editor to open, modify and save them.

I’m using OpenSuSE10.2 rpm files to create Lyx puppy pet file. In order to use Lyx, we need at least 3 SuSE rpm files: 1) lyx-1.3.6.3.i586.rpm, 2) tetex-3.0.20.i586.rpm and 3) te_latex-3.0.20.i586.rpm. We’ll need rpm2cpio and cpio utility program to extract this rpm files.

• convert, extract and create lyx-1.3.6.3 pet fileplease use link on comment below – 5.4MB

     mkdir lyx-1.3.6-3-i586 && cd lyx-1.3.6-3-i586
     rpm2cpio /mnt/hda/suse/i586/lyx-1.3.6-3.i586.rpm | cpio -i --make-directories
     cd .. && dir2pet lyx-1.3.6-3-i586
