You probably need to do the following (as root): assuming you have a directory /usr/local/lib/texmf/ then do mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/texmf/tex/latex/ ln -s /usr/local/share/lyx/layouts/ usr/local/lib/texmf/tex/latex/lyx texhash /usr/local/lib/texmf/ And then open lyx (as normal user) and run Edit->configure and restart lyx.
