Hello and thanks for answering,
Here is what I got when I did a backtrace:

After this the Lyx window was still visible but did not respond to
anything (the words (at the top): File, Edit,... did not show).
I might also add, that after deleting the appropriate .lyx directory
(.lyx-1.1.6fix4 in this case) and runing Lyx by typing lyx-1.1.6fix4 the
program crashed. However if I typed src/lyx-1.1.6fix4 (after deleting
the .lyx-1.1.6fix4 directory) the program didn't crash. Reruning lyx
again, in both methods resulted in crashing.
Thanks again,
Amir.
