These 4 steps will compile, test and install LyX:
    0) Linux users beware: You need qt4 and qt4-devel packages 
       of the same version to compile LyX.
    1) ./configure
         if you want to install LyX at your own local account, you should then use
       ./configure --prefix=$HOME
    2) make
       compiles the program.
    3) src/lyx
       runs the program so you can check it out.
    4) make install
       will install it. You can use "make install-strip" instead
           if you want a smaller binary.
Last point, when you first start LyX, you do the '/Tools/Reconfigure'  in order to make many template available.
