You are not too optimistic. Really, it is easy. I am not a LaTeX guru and I
didn't install any additional font, as I said. But this is not required
because it is very very easy to use different fonts.
You just have to add a few lines in the preamble of your document (in the
Document menu). Than in Characters you set the family: for example, if you
use utopia choose Family: Roman; and then Roman: Predefined; Sans Serif:
Predefined. And that's all.
Here it is an example of the three lines I put at the beginning of the
preamble of a LyX document when I want to use utopia:
\usepackage{utopia}
\usepackage{berasans}
\renewcommand{\ttdefault}{lmtt}
