It turns out to be a LaTeX problem (see below).

This are LaTeX packages that are pretty standard and part of all major
distributions but not installed in every case by default.

This points out that a used font is not available (for LaTeX) on your
machine.

It's an incomplete LaTeX installation. LaTeX is a highly modular system,
so normally it is a good decision not to install all available packages.
Opinions on what is regarded a "complete" installation differ.

If you do not need the PDF version of the help documents, you can just
ignore this (until you possibly need the mentioned packages for your own
documents).

Otherwise, install the required LaTeX packages, re-configure LyX and try
again.

For more detailled help we need to know:
What LaTeX distribution do you use? On what system?
