next update:
even the non-crash point 4 is going to crash in the moment you push "Up in 
directory structure"
button, which finally lead me to the though that the culprit is '.lyx' which is 
hidden file in
linux terminology.
indeed when you use "Show hidden files" in popup menu of file dialog, no other 
crash appears.
now the question remains how to switch this on, because i dont see any such 
property of QFileDialog
in qt4.
