Hello,
After much testing and trying, I found that using another account on my
computer everything worked fine, that is lyx needed to create its
directory structure there and then everything worked.
I renamed my configuration directory on my real account and started lyx,
not it works (at least it doesn't die when I type a single key!)
I now have another problem, if I create a new file, type anything in it,
and try to close the file, I'm being asked if I really want to and answer
yes, I then get a popup 'do you really want to exit lyx?' (this shouldnt
have occured at all I asked to close a document!) and I answer yes for
fun, lyx crashes.
Anyhow, now that lyx works for me I can try to work on InsetGraphics.
btw: I have the original lyx configuration directory, maybe someone will
want to try and find out the reason for the problem I was having.
