JMarc,

That's how I install upgrades. I run Slackware64-14.2. Just re-installed lyx
and it's the same behavior.

The application loads immediately, but as soon as I use C-x C-f to open a
document all of one CPU core is used and nothing happens.

While this host has been up almost 130 days there must be something stuck
that's not displayed where I can see it. I'll reboot (which I normally do
only with a kernel upgrade.)

I'll be back to report if the reboot fixed the problem.
