If you're using Unity:

Older versions of unity 'grabbed' the menu bar of the active program
and displayed it at the top of the screen (not window), but only if the
cursor is there. Try moving the cursor to the top of the screen. I
remember having to delete (or rename) an executable to restore 'normal'
behaviour.

Newer versions seem to have another system, which is configurable in a
more practical way, and allow to auto-hide the menu. I believe this is
a property of the window manager - not of LyX.
