You're right, deleting the EPS->PNG converter (and an EPS->PDF converter I had) fixed the problem.
Please leave the EPS -> PDF converter (epstopdf --outfile=$$o $$i). This is a predefined converter that works without any problems.
Huh, so there's nothing wrong with the converters interface per se, just with some particular converters? That makes no sense to me whatsoever.
You ain't seen nothing yet. First off, the default EPS->PDF converter didn't work for me; I had to hack a batch file a while back. It sends the EPS files through Ghostscript's eps2eps and passes the result to epstopdf. Second, if I follow Uwe's suggestion to leave the EPS->PDF converter alone and just delete the EPS->PNG converter, then I get load errors on all the EPS files in the user guide. That's why I took them both out -- it appears that the existence of any EPS->whatever converter messes up the image loads in LyX. Just checked; without the EPS->PDF converter I can't view the user guide (View->PDF blows up using both dvipdfm and pdflatex).
So it appears that I can either load EPS images in LyX *or* view the end rsults, but not both -- at least pending determination of the real underlying problem.
