hi all,

many thanks to you all.  i have either pkg_delete or make deinstall from
lyx back to tex-3.14159 as of your suggestions.  and do only ports install
from tex up to lyx again, no more pkg_add.  with ports, i compile source
files to fit to my machine easily. and i have to use this way since my
machine is quite old, 486dx2-66.  for each ports, i do

make clean
make depend
make configure
make
make install
rehash
make clean

it's quite funny that after tex-3.14159 has been installed, i installed
teTeX and latex2e-98.01 parallelly.  and this is also very fotunate
that latex finish first.  and i have to make deinstall some ports.

anyway, lyx is up again and i can 'view dvi' from within lyx now.
any further informations are welcome.
