I think I've already reported this as a bug, 

        http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=602

I've found two temporary ways to get around this. If you're lazy,
just restart Lyx. Otherwise, execute something like this on your prompt
(I'm assuming tcsh):

        >find /tmp/lyx* -name "*.eps" -exec rm {} \;

which fill find and delete all .eps-files in Lyx's temporary
directories. But be careful, don't do any typos :-)
