Small or capital Ÿ? The small one is both in latin1 and latin9, the capital
one only in latin9.
If you really mean capital Ÿ: This should only happen if you copied the
first Ÿ from my file. The second one should not work with latin1.

No. The \inputencoding setting of the .lyx file determines the encoding of
the .tex file.

No. \inputencoding default means that the inputenc package is not used, and
you have to make sure yourself that all non-ascii characters work.

If you mean the user defined latex preamble that you can enter in LyX: THis
one never replaces the LyX generated preamble, it is always used in
addition. Just look at the generated .tex file.

A beta is expected very soon, but it still has some known problems, so I
would not yet use it for production work. For the differences to 1.4 see
