Not having .../Resources means you also don't have bind files, keyboard maps and, critically, the scripts for doing things like configuring LyX and converting graphics. So the menu problem (aggravating as it is) is just the tip of the iceberg. Not running LyX under Linux myself, I want to make sure I didn't lead you down the garden path. The LyX binaries are in /usr/local/ lyx-1.5.2/bin, right? What directories do you have under /usr/ local/lyx-1.5.2? (Just in case the Linux directory layout is different than what I'm used to under Windoze.)

I just completed a fresh install of 1.5.2, after removing my ~/.lyx directory, and running 'make uninstall' in the lyx-1.5.2 directory in /usr/local. Re-compiling, and installing seemed to go fine with no obvious errors. The lyx binaries get installed in /usr/local/bin/:

$ which lyx
/usr/local/bin/lyx

And here is the directory structure of /usr/local/lyx-1.5.2:

Like Paul, I don't know where things go on a Mac, but on Linux you'd find the critical files in /usr/local/share/lyx. If that's not where they are, you can re-install one more time and watch (or capture) the output and see where things have been put. Try something like:
   make install | tee /tmp/install.log
and then look through install.log.

Still, you shouldn't be seeing those sorts of errors, and we may need Mac people to help us out here.

Is this a Mac issue? (The screenshot was of Ubuntu, wasn't it?)
