I forgot to add how to do it:
from the file lyxrc.example in the shared directory of the lyx
installation
there is a "hebrew support" section.
Generally you should un-rem things there to get hebrew working in LyX. As
for keyboard mapping, the relevant lines are:
\kbmap true
\kbmap_primary null
\kbmap_secondary hebrew
and later:
# You also need to bind a key for switching between Hebrew and English.
# For example,
\bind "F12" "language hebrew"
Add them to your ~/.lyx/lyrrc and things should work.
