I followed the instructions on http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/AcmSiggraph:
downloaded the latest acmsiggraph latex files and installed them in Miktex, and
copied the acmsiggraph.layout file into the lyx layouts direct, ran reconfigure.
Now a new document class shows up "article (ACM SIGGRAPH"). When I set this as
my document type and try to view the output, using either pdf or dvi, I get the
following latex error messages:
Errors:
Undefined control sequence.
You can't use '\relax' after \the
Undefined control sequence.
You can't use '\relax' after \the
Description:
\bibitem{Goldstein}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., '\hobx'), type 'I' and the correct
speelling (e.g., 'I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was defined.
No pdf or dvi file ever gets generated.
If I use the article document class then everything works fine, including the
bibliography. Of course then it's not in the format I want.

This file is not the official one and it is not recommended to use it for
submissions.

LyX didn't yet have a layout file for acmsiggraph, but I now created one. You
find it together with
the installation instructions and an example file here:
http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/AcmSiggraph
Please test it out and report me back. When you can use it successfully, I will
include the layout
file to the next LyX version.
