SVG images. These images show up fine in LyX itself, but when I export a
PDF, the images have a black background instead of a white one, which makes
them illegible. (The same images worked fine on earlier versions of LyX and
Ubuntu.) Can someone help me figure out what's going on?

1. How are you generating the PDFs (pdflatex, dvipdfm, ...)?

2. How are you configured to convert SVGs? Please check Tools > Preferences
... > File Handling > Converters, look for the converter from SVG to your
output format (e.g., "SVG -> PDF (graphics)" or "SVG -> PNG"), and report
the contents of the "Converter" and "Extra flags" boxes. If you're not sure
which one you're using, please report them all.

FWIW, I just tested a sample doc with an SVG image (funky stuff on white
background) on Linux Mint 16 Cinnamon (equivalent to Ubuntu 13.10?) using
rsvg-convert as the converter, and the PDF had a seamless white background
for the image.
