Are you using egcs to compile LyX? In this case, try the following
(from INSTALL):
-----------
o LyX does not work correctly on Digital Alpha CPU systems (both
under Digital Unix and Linux) if compiled by egcs-1.1.[12]. The
crash can be triggered by opening the Tutorial !
The easiest workaround is to compile completely without
optimization. That is achieved by doing (inside the lyx build dir)
CXXFLAGS=" -O0 " path_to_configure/configure ; make
The best workaround is to manually compile the file math_iter.C without
optimization. Only that single file math_iter.o causes the trouble.
It is not clear yet whether the problem is in LyX or egcs.
------------
It is known now that the bug is (was) in egcs, and version 1.0.4pre2
contains a workaround for the bug.
