For me it seems that exporting your file as LaTeX isn�t enough. The
missing (the warnings) of croos-references and so on indicates that you
missed to "latex" your exported file.
You can do so by typing "latex [yourfilename.tex]" at the command line.

I do not know much abpout pdflatex; I managed the problem to convert
LyX-files to PDF as follows:
1. include a
\usepackage[ps2pdf,pdftitle={whatever you
want},linktocpage,colorlinks=true]{hyperref}
in your LaTeX-preamble (Layout -> LaTeX...)
2. Export your LyX-file as Postscript.
3. Use ps2pdf to create the PDF-file (at the command line: "ps2pdf
[yourfilename.ps]"
For me this works quite perfectly - but I agree with you that a "direct"
PDF-export would be much more comfortable (hint for the developers :-).
