Which of the following are you experiencing when LANG is set to ja_JP ?
(1) You can't enter umlauts within LyX.
(2) Umlauts are not shown in the LyX window
(3) Umlauts are not shown in the DVI/Postscript.
I suspect that (3) happens as the encoding defined by the inputenc package
(Latin1) clashes with the encoding defined by the CJK package (Big5, GB etc.).
Perhaps you need to use the UTF8 encoding option of the CJK package (if
CJK-LyX supports it), or use Omega instead of LaTeX (if CJK-LYX supports it).
Also, if (3) happens, please send me a small example file
(the lyx file + the latex file).
Anyhow, I plan of integrating the CJK-LyX into the normal version, and I
hope that in this process your problem will be solved.
