Did you already look at the various texlive-* packages that come with
Ubuntu? Quite a lot of the fonts are pre-packed for your system (in
Debian it is the texlive-fonts-extra package). Installing these first
will save you a lot of time and pain.
(BTW: Bera is in Debian, but my kpfonts are a local install.)

LyX has GUI support for just a few font alternatives. However, you can
set the font to [Default] there and load the font-package in the LaTeX
preamble like
\usepackage{kpfonts}
