What is your $LANG set to ? You may have to set it to greek to enter the
text (this is an X/Qt thing not LyX's). Is the language set to greek for
the document ?

Can  you give the output you get with lyx -dbg key after you type a
character ? Can  you give a small example output document, and further
explain what you mean by "cannot type on Lyx" ?
