Thanks, I did what you told me. It works now, in LyX Preferences SVG converters 
appeared using Inkscape.

I have a problem with SVGs containing raster picture. I made a capture to 
explain the case: http://zaradek.hu/svg/Linked_image_not_found.png. I use 
Inkscape to put captions made by LaTeX onto the 3D raster picture. I put it 
into LyX but the raster image is missing from the LyX window and (after 
compiling the LyX file) from the PDF as well. It would be great to fix this 
problem.

The other thing I noticed (but it's not relevant for me) is that if I open the 
SVG file from LyX then the toolbar of Inkscape collapses, the button images 
aren't shown up: http://zaradek.hu/svg/Crashed_toolbar.png.

Cheers, Máté

  When you install LyX using this installer:
  http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller

  Inkscape is used to convert the SVG to PDF as you want it.
  The whitespace problem you described was a bug in ImageMagick (that also 
appears for PDF and PS 
  images). To get a fixed version:

  - uninstall the Existing ImageMagick (if you have it installed)
  - reinstall LyX 1.5.5 using the obove mentioned installer that delivers the 
latest ImageMagick
