After you have exported your file to "file.tex" or something, try
giving the following command

latex file.tex

It should produce file.dvi, which you can view with "xdvi file.dvi".
If that works, you can be 100% sure that the export works.

Generally there shouldn't be any problem, because each time
you select "View PS" LyX actually exports the document to
TeX and runs LaTeX automatically.

Yes.
