1. copy ~/.lyx/layouts/article.layout to esub2acm.layout
2. edit the second line in esub2acm.layout to
   #  \DeclareLaTeXClass{esub2acm}
3. save esub2acm.cls and all other files from the site
 in /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/esub2acm/
4. run texhash
5. run ~/.lyx/configure and look for a line like
   +checking for document class esub2acm [esub2acm]... yes

start lyx and the class should be in 
layout->document->class as esub2acm

now you have to look if standard article class are
more or less similiar to the esub2acm class.
