If you choose Alignment = Left in the Paragraph menu you have no hyphenation in the
final document. For left aligned text with hyphenation write the following into your
preamble:
\usepackage{ragged2e}
\RaggedRight
Apart from that you can edit the layout files (first copy them to "~/.lyx/layouts") to
get rid of block alignment in lyx.
