I use a bib file from which I select the references for my

which is my reference manager, I can (under tools) select a subfile
based on this aux file. Can I get the aux file somehow also without
the latex procedure from lyx?

If you View the document in LyX, the .aux file should be generated
in the LyX temporary directory. While the document is still open in
LyX, go to the temporary directory LyX is using and it should be
there. On Linux, the temporary directory is typically under /tmp,
and in any case "Tools > Preferences > Paths > Temporary directory"
will get you to the starting point. It's just a matter of drilling
down a couple of levels from there.

Thanks, Paul, that was very helpful and well explained. Its much
easier to get the aux file from there as to run the latex stuff.
Furthermore, running latex creates large .eps files (instead of the
.jpg files) for the figures which I don't need and want.

Wolfgang,
Viewing the document in LyX causes LyX to run LaTeX, so those .eps
files are probably being generated anyway. It's just that they'll be
in the temp directory, and automatically deleted when you exit LyX.
Paul
Yes, but if I run latex in my lyx directory, the eps files clutter it I
have to delete them. So your advice is indeed helpful
