and all now appears to work fine provided I keep this new name.

I hope this will help in uncovering and fixing the cause.

 It shouldn't. LyX 1.6.5 in general works fine on 10.6.

Are you using the binary we provide for 1.6.5, or did you compile it
yourself? What you describe sounds like symptoms I see when I compile
LyX with Qt 4.5 or 4.6, but Qt 4.4 does not have these problems, at
least in my testing. (The binary we use for distribution uses Qt 4.4.)
