Actually, the problem is that the window cannot be made smaller than its initial size (e.g. if you run lyx -geometry 800x600, you cannot make the window smaller than 800x600), at least on some window managers. This problem was not present in earlier version of LyX (I think it was introduced in LyX 1.2.0).
