Glad to hear it worked.

There could be a bug here, but I can't reproduce it. I tried to follow
your instructions but XeTeX was used:

0. Make a new document and type "something".
1. Tools -> Preferences -> File Handling -> File Formats I set PDF
(XeTeX) as Default Format.
2. In Document -> Settings -> Fonts I checked Use non-TeX fonts (via
XeTeX/LuaTeX).
3. Then I chose the Linux Liberation fonts (serif, sans, mono).

I then clicked on the "eyes" button. LyX used XeTeX. How are you
generating the pdf?

Can you reproduce the behavior you originally reported with a new
document? If so, can you please send that document and a copy of your
preferences file (~/.lyx/preferences).

Thanks,

Scott
