Thanks Scott, It looks like I'm running into a serious problem with Okular. I originally thought that it was just a LyX-Okular problem but Okular seems to have decided it will not open any web link that Evince (thanks, I could not remember that name) and Adobe Reader will.
First re-installation has failed, so I guess I get to spend some quality time trying to figure out what's wrong.
