Okay, we're getting a little clarity here. Your .tex file compiled and
displayed correctly. I dug a little deeper and discovered that, in
addition to the copy of dvipost.sty installed by the Synaptic package
(which I had uninstalled), there was a second copy lurking in my ~/texmf
directory. I suspect it was left over from a previous system upgrade.
(System upgrades don't touch my home partition.) For some reason,
kpsewhich wasn't seeing it but the LyX configuration script was.
So I manually deleted that folder, reconfigured LyX, and now dvi, ps2pdf
and dvipdfm all display changes correctly. Apparently the presence of
dvipost breaks change tracking output via those compilation methods. I
wonder if the change tracking code in LyX should be tweaked so that it
never uses dvipost? Is there a reason for it to be trying to use dvipost?
Thanks for the help.
