It is strange -- I was running LyX on P120 without much problems. You 
should certainly run xforms version though, because KDE has really no 
sense on such computer (read: the problem is Qt, not LyX).

Aside from xforms instead of qt I have no clue.

You can probably convert through pure LaTeX, but I believe that 
difference in programs (WYSIWYG v. WYSIWYM) is so big, that you can as 
well write in pure txt (or LaTex -- it is not so difficult and Emacs 
with AUCTeX should run on your computer without much problems).

See above.
