ok, than the problem must be a package.
Insert at the last command the preamble
\listfiles
in the texfile place it before the \begin{document}
Now run lyx or latex and look for the output like this:
*File List*
article.cls 2001/04/21 v1.4e Standard LaTeX document class
size10.clo 2001/04/21 v1.4e Standard LaTeX file (size option)
times.sty 2000/01/12 PSNFSS-v8.1 Times font as default roman (SPQR)
a4wide.sty 1994/08/30
a4.sty 1999/03/03 v1.2f A4 based page layout
chess.sty
fontenc.sty
t1enc.def 2000/08/30 v1.91 Standard LaTeX file
t1ptm.fd 2000/01/12 PSNFSS-v8.1 font definitions for T1/ptm.

what does the version numbers and date of your packages say?
