Yes, I think this is true... can this can be corrected?
What happens if you do some change to the LyX-file (other than removing the
\input, e.g. inserting a comment)? Will the changes in the inputted file go
to the DVI?
Normal changes to the LyX file do show up when I do an Update-DVI so that's
good... it's just the \input that isn't getting update in the DVI or PS
output...
I just did a small test, and I cannot reproduce the bug: in my LyX 1.1.6fix3
on KDE, if I have the files test.lyx and input.tex in the same directory and
test.lyx calls input.tex via InsertFileInput, a change in input.tex
without any change to test.lyx leads to a correct update when I press
Ctrl-shift-D to update the DVI.
Maybe a guru might find the difference in the setup that leads to this different
behaviour.

I'm hardly a guru, but it sounds like the original questioner is
inserting \input{myfile} as ERT. If so, I would not be surprised if
LyX did not rerun LaTeX just because myfile.tex changed. As best I can
surmise without searching the code, LyX just blindly copies ERT to the
output file without looking at it.
On the other hand, if the input was being done via Insert-File-Input,
I would indeed expect LyX to rerun LaTeX if myfile.tex changed. Or am I
out in left field, again? Herbert?

Yes, that's right... I was just using the Latex command \input{} directly
in LyX without using the Insert-File option.. the problem was that on my
Windows OS, when I did Insert-File, the filename I inserted wasn't
recognized.. and a user on this list pointed out correctly that it was
cos the filename itself /cygwin/d/blah wasn't being recognized... so I
switched to this direct mode of just using \input and controlling the
filename...

This is untrue: LyX should normally auto detect when any source file is changed.
If this does not happen send the output you get when running lyx -dbg depend,
doing 'view dvi', changing a file and then doing 'view dvi' again.
