Does anyone know how I may solve this problem? I could go back to tetex, but I'd feel more satisfied with finding a solution to the problem, so here I am :) .

I don't know lyx so i can't give you the one and only hint.-) Control the commands which be behind the buttons and try to run them in a konsole.

If you run latex (or pdflatex) in a konsole the default is that the output will be in the same directory as the tex files. See you, Attila
