You shouldn´t put this
> \dvi_to_ps_command "dvips -Ppdf"
into .lyxrc
Below you find an extract from my ~/.lyx/preferences file

Every system is different. Without the '-Ppdf' the minus symbols were not
present on-screen

So is it simply putting this last line into /.lyx/lyxrc?

Yes I also got this ligature problem (fi, ff). But a friend of mine has
already found the solution.
In the 'config.pdf' file (in my system to be found in
'/var/lib/texmf/dvips/config/') there is the Letter 'G' which has to be
commented out. Then the ligatures come as they should and hopefully no
other problems arise.
Will see if this ps->pdf thing will become transparent some day.
Greetings
Wolfgang
