Thank you Paul.  
I have tried your suggestion and it looks like there
may be a font problem although I'm not good enough at
reading the terminal output to be sure. I have posted
the output at
http://ca.geocities.com/jrkrideau/LyX/lyx.ooo.pdf . 

I am not getting any error messages but two warnings
instead.  

I have tried changing the fonts with no success.  What
did you change the font setting to?  

 As before, tex file is working just fine
