start lyx from commandline and do a edit->reconfigure.
look for lines like:
+checking for document class g-brief-en [g-brief]... yes
+checking for document class heb-article [article]... yes
+checking for document class heb-letter [letter]... yes
+checking for document class hollywood [hollywood]... yes
what is with the foiltex.cls?
