I recently added textcomp.sty to my lyx configuration to enable the degreecelsius symbol. However, I kept getting an error when I tired to use \textcelsius in a .lyx document. No make matters more confusion, other symbols that are part of the textcomp package worked fine (e.g. \textdegree, \textdagger, etc.). With the kind help of H. Voss, I discovered an conundrum. Mr. Voss sent me a .lyx file with a single \textcelsius command (textcelsius.yes.lyx) that he created on his 1.2.1 lyx. My version of lyx (1.2.1_1 from freebsd ports) can open it, and display a div with no errors. However, a file that I create on my machine with the same single \textcelsius command, yields an error when I try and display the dvi. I have attached both files. Are there any lyx users that can shed some light on this situation?
