Re: error on startup

Yes, you are right.  Running
/etc/profile.d/lilypond.sh set me up correctly. 
Thanks for the tip--since I ran the RPM I didn't read
INSTALL.txt

Another Q: I run lilypond file.ly, then tex file.tex,
then xdvi file.dvi.  But the dvi (a format I know very
little about, btw) doesn't display with line breaks. 
So after about 2-3 measures I can't see anything on
the right.  I'd just as soon skip TeX/dvi and go right
to PS, but it doesn't seem to work right.
