That is using different flavors of Linux.
The only common denominators between the systems were .lyx directory
was intact from previous version and that they all used the version I
disclosed.
If you were updating from 1.4.x, then yes, there have been problems
reported like this. I believe I had this same problem myself when
upgrading. It often seems to trace to customized export formats that
were, for some reason, recorded in an incompatible way in the
preferences file. If the Release Notes don't address this issue, then
they should.
From UPGRADING:
The format of the preferences file has changed slightly. LyX 1.5.x is
able to read old preferences files, but it will save them in the new
format, so it is not possible to run LyX 1.4.x and 1.5.x with the same
personal configuration directory.
This doesn't say you should delete the old file, but it does kind of
imply that. I'll add a note making that explicit.
