I decided to try preview-latex.  I installed the debian
package preview-latex-style and turned on the option
in lyx.  I typed in a math formula, and as soon as
I hit space (leaving math) the crash happened.
Lyx created a ppm file on disk with the formula, but I newer saw it
onm screen.
Formula $2^{4^{65536}-9^{36}}+57=x^{x}-x^{x^{-x}}$


This is the output in the xterm I started lyx from:
