Attached you can see both the lyxrc.default file and the preferences
menu. In the first one, qpdfview is setup by default, while on the
second there is no way to setup evince as default.
As I have read in the thread, the advice is to edit the lyxrc.default,
changing qpdfview with evince. Nevertheless, this solution does not
allow me to understand why this happened and why it cannot be changed
from the preferences menu.
I will wait for your comments before proceeding.

The answer to the second question is that you are looking at the wrong
file format in the preferences menu. This is showing "*LaTeX*
(pdflatex)", which is the .tex source code file that will be compiled
into your document. Since LaTeX source files are plain text, the menu is
showing the installed programs suitable for viewing text files.
If you switch the Format entry to "*PDF* (pdflatex)", the Viewer menu
should show you appropriate programs for viewing PDF files (hopefully
including Evince).
