Thanks for the report. What tetex packages do you have installed, ie,
what is the output of
dpkg -l tetex-* | egrep '^ii'
?

This sounds as if there are problems with font caching. What is the
ouput of
ls -l /var/cache/fonts
?

Let's make this a bit simpler by removing the extra layer due to lyx.
Could you please process the following file with latex and view the
resulting dvi file with xdvi:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
test
\end{document}
Do you get any error messages? Thanks.
