Now that the homework has been handed in (manual cut
and paste of images) I've posted the .lyx file to
http://ryuu.ca/lyx, along with the images, in case anyone
wants to see the raw source. I've also posted my preferences
and lyxrc files in the same directory. All will vanish
once this is solved, but it might help, and it can't hurt.
seems to be a bug in LyX, but the question is who inserts
this line ...
Delete the line
\graphics dvips
in your LyX file ( outside of LyX ) and everything should
be ok. At least for me ... ;-)
This works for me as well. Still doesn't work with any
of the other view options, but at least one works.
Thank you.
I still don't understand where that line came from, since
when I go to Layout->Document->Packages it says that
my Postscript driver is "Default". Can I change that
to something else in my preferences or lyxrc?
replying to myself...
In testing, I've found that if I create a NEW file,
I get \graphics default. This would explain why the new
file was working.
However, in a1.ps, even though I have set
the option to "default", it seems to keep \graphics dvips
The file may have been created before my installation broke,
so I don't know if that was the way things were before.
Setting the options to dvips, saving, then setting them
back to default actually updated the file.
Now to try to solve the problem of it not working for any
other option, no matter what file format I use. Prior to
my loss of /usr/local, it was working fine. Now I open
my old files and I'm getting all sorts of errors and I can't
create pdfs from them at all, yet I could before.
I have been sent a couple more links for documentation, so
will read those before coming back with hopefully cogent
questions.

Marc
