No, but I am relieved.

In fact, the Meta key as seen by LyX is whatever key bound to Mod1.
The fact that your meta key is also a compose key is certainly not a
good idea...

Something like the following would be better

keycode 0x19 (25) = Alt_L Meta_L
keycode 0x39 (57) = Alt_R Meta_R
keycode 0x28 (40) = Meta_L          <=== assuming this is the left
                                        meta key. 
keycode 0x58 (88) = Multi_key       <=== The right one is still compose.

clear Mod1
clear Mod2

add Mod1    = Meta_L                <=== make Meta_l actually useful
add Mod2    = Alt_L Alt_R

It might be even better to remove everything from your .Xmodmap file
and see what happens.
