So, I now have to agree with Paul that there is a problem with my LaTeX,
not with LyX. So this should get classified as a Fedora bug (big

Probably, Derek, you could get further help from Fedora mailing lists.
Try it and good luck!
He could try, but it's a long shot: upgrade from RHL9 to FC4 is a
_gigantic_ leap of faith, most of the people on Fedora will flatly
dismiss it as unsupported.
I'd just back up your home dir and do a fresh install of FC4
(it really is a nice system after all).
Solution:
Didn't try the Fedora mailing lists. Since there were so many other
problems with the upgrade (for example, I had to manually change the
symlinks from LPRng to CUPS, even though I found a bug report from 2-3
years ago about a similar problem with a RH7.3->FC1 upgrade) in addition
to having TeX directories in places they had no business being, I just
backed up all the important scientific data and home directories and did
a fresh install. Installed LyX, and now most everything seems to be
working fine.
thanks for the help,
Derek
