One thing needs to be understand and remembered: pdflatex does not
understand POSTSCRIPT. So everything further is a little bit tricky.
Please read: http://www.coli.uni-saarland.de/~fouvry/how-do-I.html
It may help you understand what you need to have PSTricks working with
your LaTeX document. I've tried, but getting results is very heavy and
time consuming tasks.
And, what is worth mention here, LyX does not support such trickery
execution of different types of LaTeX compilers. Some --shell-escape
added to pdflatex invocation helps with pst-pdf, but I could cause
pdflatex to crash every time you do not use PSTrick in your document.
In general, worth to try, but everyday usefulness in minor in my opinion.
On the other hand I heard Tikz gives good results with pdflatex:
