When using View>PDF which has been working without problems in the past with a 
large document I have been developing for over a year, I now get the 
following Lyx error dialog:

Cannot convert file
Error while executing
ps2pdf �-dCompatibilityLevel=1.3 'thesis5.ps'

How do I go about finding the source of this problem. Lyx does not show any 
errors in the document.

Problem may have had something to do with the Linux version of Acroread7 which 
I installed recently. Following this installation View>PDF command failed to 
work with varying indications of errors. Acroread7 seemed to work OK with PDF 
files, it seemed that the conversion from eps or ps process was failing. I 
reinstalled Acroread5.0.10 but errors still ocurred, with error messages only 
telling me that conversion failed, sometimes saying it couldn't process eps 
files. After about a day of trying various things, View>PDF finally worked 
fine under Acroread5.0.10.

Now the problem has reappeared.
