Wolfgang,
If you are in Windows, you can use the tlmgr (the Texlive package manager) to install support for Greek.
If you are in Linux (as I am), you can use the Linux package manager (since I use (L)ubuntu, for me this is synaptic)--
search on texlive in synaptic and you'll see something like: texlive-lang-greek.  Install it and everything will be nice.

 Did you include Greek among the languages that LaTeX supports?

Thanks, Ehud, for the feedback,

but where is this done? In the preamble? and how? (\usepackage ...?)
or in 
Document settings > Language?
There I have selected for Encoding
Language German
which is the Language I use in this document

and played around with
language default, other, language package 
(greek, babel, utf8 ..)
but got errors 

Or is it done just before the Greek symbols (which occur only at a few 
occassions in the document)?

An alternative is TeX Gyre Pagella, also a Palatino clone, which you can
call by
\usepackage{tgpagella}

in the preamble.

Hallo,

using \usepackage{tgpagella} I get the following error message:
Font LGR/cmr/m/n/10.95=grmn1095 at 10.95pt not loadable: Metric (TFM)
file no
Font LGR/qpl/m/n/10.95=grmn1095 at 10.95pt not loadable: Metric (TFM)
file no

and the following description of it:
 Dbp, Ror\textgreek{g}
                            , RevErb\textgreek{a}, RevErb\textgreek{b},
Dec1...
I wasn't able to read the size data for this font,
so I will ignore the font specification.
[Wizards can fix TFM files using TFtoPL/PLtoTF.]
You might try inserting a different font spec;
e.g., type `I\font<same font id>=<substitute font name>'.

which refers to
\textgreek{a} etc
(an upright alpha)

I had changed in document settings>fonts all to default because of
using
\usepackage{tgpagella}

is tgpagella not able to handle upright greek?

and what different font spec would be recommendable to handle it?

Wolfgang
