Your EPS -> PDF coverter has the command

right? So when you choose View -> PDF in LyX you'll get a valid pdf file with correct images, also right?
Actually, I had replaced that line, because when I first installed LyX 1.3.3 the default EPS -> PDF converter worked with View->PDF and View->PDF (dvipdfm) but not with View->PDF (pdflatex). Unfortunately, while I made a note of this (and how I fixed it), I did not think to put down exactly what went wrong with View->PDF (pdflatex). I just went back to the default converter, and View->PDF (pdflatex) works now (at least on the user guide), so apparently upgrading either ImageMagick or Ghostscript solved that problem.
So leave the original EPS -> PDF converter.
Except that it prevents LyX from displaying EPS images internally (I get the "Error converting to loadable format" message). Taking out the EPS->PDF converter line lets LyX display the EPS images.
