Yes! Finally! I had asked a very similar question one or two days
ago. Solution: /etc/lyxrc or ~/.lyx/lyxrc must contain:
\view_dvi_command "gnome-gv $( basename $$FName .dvi ).pdf"
\pdf_mode true
or use 'gv', 'acroread' or 'xpdf' instead of 'gnome-gv'. None of them
is ideal. The gv's can watch the file so that you can use LyX's
"update dvi", but don't have continous scrolling. The pdf's can scroll
documents continously, but they can't watch a pdf file. If you know
better, please tell me so!
Enjoy, and Gruesse von Bonn nach Bonn,
