Looks to me like the tex or latex binary can't be found from withtin LyX. I get the same thing because tex is installed in /usr/loca instead of /usr and I used tcsh as a shell. The effect is that path settings set in the .login file don't have any effect in the GUI environment. Effectively, /us/local/bin doesn't appear in my path if I lauch LyX from a menu button (such as the ones in the GNOME panel).
