I asked about this problem before and Georg couldn't come up with a solution. Now I have this to add: it's apparently not a lyx issue after all.
This morning I removed lyx-1.3.5 and built -1.3.4 from source. It exhibits the same problem: when I view a figure float in the document all I see are a few black spots here and there, not a complete figure as I did before or now do on my notebook. Then I built -1.3.5 from source and installed that. Same problem.
So, it's apparently a function of the hardware here since 1.3.4 on my notebook running Slackware-10.0 looks just like it always did. It's only on this new server/workstation where there's a problem. What's strange, however, is that my Hyundai L70S LCD monitor died on Monday (only 13 months old) but I have the same display problem of figures within a LyX document on the replacement Samsung LCD monitor. (The Hyundai is under warranty but I need to get work done in the meantime.)
Another strange problem I just saw today, but that's for another thread.
