FYI the problem is that Adnane get the 'File cp1256.def not found' latex 
error message. This means that the package 'arabi' is not installed on 
his Linux system. Couldn't we warn such user that this package is 
missing instead of throwing at him such cryptic latex error message?

No, that cp1256.def is not found can have several reasons. Some distributions ship it directly with 
TeX as part of inputenc, some not. Moreover we don't have a lookup table what encoding belongs to 
what package as often several packages provide different files but with the same name.

To use Arabic, we set up a LyX Wiki page with all instructions.
