I use dia for diagrams (kind of what Windows guys use Visio for), Inkscape for vector drawing, and Gimp for raster drawing. dia exports to .png, which can import directly into LyX. Inkscape uses .svg, which can import directly into LyX, for a native format. Gimp can write just about any kind of raster format.
