This is one error, but not the one we're chasing. Apparently, you have a 
bmp file somewhere in your document, and LyX doesn't know how to convert 
it to eps, which is the format needed for dvi.


If we're trying to debug the math problem, then you need to do this with 
a simple file that has nothing but one word, then a footnote with a word 
and some math in it. Otherwise, we get these spurious errors.

I uninstalled lyx 1.5.5.3 and installed lyx 1.5.6..

And now the math in the footnote works for the pdf...

Actually the same problem occurs when the math is removed... It won't
produce the DVI... But without the math, the PDF is produced.
