I miss a better explanation of how you are trying this. If you did not
apply the two pending patches, you must use xforms and define the DVI
viewer as
xdvi -editor 'lyxclient -a $$a -g %f %l'
and the latex->dvi converter as
latex --src-specials
Note that xdvi 22.40f has a bug in the wrapper script that hast trouble
with -editor option. If this occours with your version too (22.40h,
right?) you can try, instead of defining the dvi viewer as I said, let it
be simply xdvi with no options and export the variable
XEDITOR='lyxclient -g %f %l'
I advise that this will only work if you have only one lyx runing, as we
cannot in this case pass the socket address $$a to lyxclient.
After applying the two pending patches, qt will work and xdvi and kdvi can
be defined as dvi viewers with no options.

This is the first patch. The other, providing qt support for sockets, is
in the same thread:
