It's no necessary. I have lyx-1.5.5 working with texlive 2007 included in Ubuntu 8.04, that is installed in /usr/share/... And the compiled lyx 1.6.1 working with texlive 2008 manually installed from the ISO. This is installed in /usr/local and works independently. Only you must do some easy tweaks with the paths, follow the directions in the texlive ISO page Regards Igancio García
