LaTeX woes

[Greg Guest]

Hi all,

I loaded Mandrake 8.2 and Lilypond happily installed, and produced a .tex
output, but LaTeX would not work with it and produced the following error
msg:

address@hidden greg]$ ly2dvi -P w.ly
bash: ly2dvi: command not found

Perhaps its not worth the trouble solving my problem, since everything works
fine for me in windows.  It just seems kind of silly to use emacs to write
the file lilypond for cygwin to process it and ghostscript to read it all in
a Windows box.

I'm open to any suggestions

thanks
Greg
