What about assembling a contrib package, because on OS/2 another file
is missing, which I did include in my old bin package (from old  Old
README.OS2):

 Note1:	I included 'render.ps', which is needed by this special
 -----	version of ghostscript to render bitmap images of Type1
fonts for
	Xdvi/2, as Xdvi can call gsftopk and display postscript. Move
it to a 
	directory, where the other *.ps helper files for ghostscript
	reside,	so that ghostscript can find it. 

Easiest solution would be to include this file in LyX source
distribution and move it to a OS/2 subdirectory (no bloat: 2 kbyte)

Regards,
	Arnd
