	That's just saying that you don't have the libforms library on
your system. Try having a look at ldd /usr/bin/lyx (or wherever lyx
happens to lurk). In my system,
$ ldd /usr/bin/lyx
        libforms.so.0.89 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libforms.so.0.89 (0x40020000)
	[.....]

	If you get the error you mention, libforms is either not
installed or not recognized by ld. I'd suggest making sure libforms is
there at all, and if not, install the rpm.

	Regards
