Dear all
I've just been bitten by the same issue on documents that I created
during the first betas and compiled just fine then. Now in RC3 I need
to add, as suggested by Daniel, the following to the preamble:
\newcommand\makebeamertitle{\frame{\maketitle}}%
This looks like a LyX omission that should be fixed. Anyone care to
comment? Cheers
Liviu

I am using LyX to make Beamer slides while supporting the use of R

If I follow the instructions found here

LyX/Sweave/Beamer works just fine. But as soon as I try to put in
Title or Author information at the beginning, LyX refuses to typeset
the presentation, returning instead this error message:
Undefined control sequence.
\makebeamertitle
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
This is mystifying to me, as the 'makebeamertitle' is defined in the
included beamer.layout now packaged with LyX.

LyX Version 1.6.4.1
Platform: Mac OS X Versoni 10.5.8 on an Intel machine.
The solution to the "LyX Beamer Sweave: makebeamertitle not being defined"
problem was to put this:
\newcommand\makebeamertitle{\frame{\maketitle}}%
in the LaTeX Preamble box, which is accessed via the Document -> Settings
dialog
box.
Liviu,
does it help with this patch? i.e. just change the Preamble line to
AddToPreamble
