LyX is trying to display these pictures in the LyX screen for your edification. To do so, it needs to convert these files from PS and EPS formats to XPM which is what it can diaplay. Do you have an EPS->XPM and a PS->XPM converter (look in the Preferences dialog). Here I have: convert $$i XPM:$$o defined for both it would appear. Alternatively, and probably faster, use the netpbm suite of converters. Angus
