I can just as easily Alt-Tab to the Lyx window or click on the taskbar. It is an odd behavior to lose the error dialog under a window. It gets buried because I tell Lyx to export pdf then switch to another application. The error dialog takes a while to pop up and ends up under the other application. I tried putting something like "rm -f $$o; ps2pdf $$i $$o" in my lyxrc.defaults for ps conversion to pdf. This does not get executed like a normal bash command for me so it does not act like two separate commands. I tried writing a single shell script that would remove the pdf before calling ps2pdf but I now realize lyx is calling stuff in a sandbox /tmp directory and then movinig the file to the working directory. I see my script executing, but the pdf in the working directory never gets erased and I get the silly error dialog.
