Jane, Still no luck. I tried your suggestion, but when I tried to View->PDF Lyx came up with an error box saying dvipspost failed. I then tried an slocate dvipspost which came up blank implying that I don't have a dvipspost converter? I've also looked through the Wiki page again but couldn't see anything that was helpfull to this problem. I think the Wiki page was the one that I originally used for its installation instructions.
