Graeme,

Linux Mint is a Ubuntu derivative, therefore you could proceed
according to the Ubuntu wiki:

* Deinstall all TeXLive-Packages of the distribution
* Install TeXLive manually:  https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/TeX_Live/ look
at the commands under the heading "Manuell"
* Then, in order to install LyX without dependencies do: 
https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/TeX_Live_DVD-Installation/#Paketverwaltung-die-neue-TeX-Live-Version-mitteilen
 look at the commands under the heading "Paketverwaltung die neue TeX
Live Version mitteilen"

In English: https://tug.org/texlive/debian.html#vanilla

Hope it helps,
Tobias

Wolfgang,

what I referred to is called the "Popup menu", "Blue menu" is
misleading, sorry. How to get it:

Tools -> Settings -> Edit -> Autocompletion, set "Automatic popup" and
Autocompletion in math mode true.

When done typing \ce in math mode spit out all commands beginning with
\ce, in my configuration \ce, \cent and \centerdot.

Yours
Tobias

Wolfgang,

I can see the sign in my browser (Firefox) and in my E-Mail
application. It is not visible on screen in LyX when copied or inserted
with Ctrl-shift u 009c, however, it is there and causes the error.

Wolfgang,

attached your formulas in a consistent look with mhchem. I called
Libertinus fonts the LyX way via Document -> Settings -> Fonts: Use non
TeX Fonts, then choosing Libertinus fonts in the drop down list.
Libertinus Math is called by \setmathfont{Libertinus Math} in the LyX
preamble.
The error message is the result of the symbol set in front of the line

œ$\mathrm{Ca^{2+}}$ dependent kinase

Have you put this symbol just before the first $ on purpose? If so,
what is it supposed to be?

Yours
Tobias

The chemical symbols look inconsistent, nuclear ancient Ca2+ upright,
Ca2+ homeostasis oblique. Do you have special reasons to avoid mhchem,
which comes preloaded with LyX? If you use the mhchem-macro for
chemicals such as \ce{Ca^2+} in LyX math mode, then you get a
consistent typesetting and a preview.

Yours
Tobias
