Hi Uwe,
This approach (save as PDF from Inkscape) did not give me alpha channel
transparency in my PDF. For example:
On the left is a PNG exported from Inkscape (or alternatively, generated
using 'rsvg-convert'. On the right is the PDF exported by Inkscape.
So I'm still stuck with no alpha channel; the only approach still is to
use a PNG conversion filter, which means blurry figures.
I'm hoping that rsvg-convert's PDF output might do a better job than
Inkscape's, but haven't succeeded with that (the LyX builtin 'convert'
convert seems to get in the way for some reason).
Cheers

This is a recommended method I found before:
Alternatively, SVG to EPS or PDF
1. Open with inkscape.
2. Export to png (huge hi-resolution)
3. Open with the GIMP
4. Save as .eps
5. gsview (or linux command) convert to .ps
6. ps2pdf convert .ps to .pdf
Regards,
Stephen
