Expected results:


Additional info:
The debug info shows lots of occurrences of:

kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode cx --bdpi 120 --mag 1+0/120 --dpi 120 cmmi10
mktexpk: Mismatched mode cx and resolution 120; ignoring mode.
mktexpk: Can't guess mode for 120 dpi devices.

Dropping back to the previous lyx version fixes the problem

Comment 1 David L. 2006-03-17 00:14:04 UTC
I had an old version of dvipng in /usr/local/bin that lyx seemed to be picking
up, instead of the new version in /usr/bin. Removing it fixed the problem.

Glad to hear you got it sorted out.
