Classicthesis internally loads typearea (from the KOMA bundle), so you
need to use the commands of that package to change the layout:
\areaset{width}{height}
As opposed to geometry (which is used by LyX), you cannot alter the
margins directly. Please refer to the KOMA manual for details and
rationalization.

Hi Jürgen,
thank you for your input. With time constraints in the neck and almost
no LaTeX knowledge I switched to Document Class KOMA-Script Article.
I can now set the page margins as needed. :-)
This seems to be contradicting with your above explanation - but then I
feel I may not have completely grasped what you said.
Anyway, it appears to me Miede's example document classicthesis has no
advantage compared to KOMA-Script Article (at least for the less
experienced user) and no special brilliance.
Quite contrary, his classicthesis-Lyx-v4.1 produces the most excellent
dissertations I have come across so far.
Thanks for your continuing help,
Michael
