I installed lyx, latex2e, xdvi, but am having trouble getting started.  I
suspect I haven't loaded the fonts that are needed, and could use some
advice.

When I run lyx, and try to run latex from within it, I get the following:
--------------------------------------------------
In ProgamVisual [flvisual.c 298] Bogus request: PseudoColor with depth=8
Couldn't load font: -*-utopia-medium-r-normal-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 
Trying times... 
This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2c 7.0)
(newfile1.tex
LaTeX2e <1996/12/01>

(/usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/article.cls
Document Class: article 1996/10/31 v1.3u Standard LaTeX document class
(/usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/size10.clo))
(/usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/fontenc.sty)

! LaTeX Error: File `epsfig.sty' not found.

---------------------------------------------------
There is no file 'epsfig.sty' anywhere on my system.

Secondly, when I try to run xdvi, I get:

xdvi /usr/home/mike/text/python.dvi
- MakeTeXPK cmti10 300 300 magstep\(0\)
/usr/local/bin/MakeTeXPK: Running mf \mode:=cx; mag:=magstep(0);
scrollmode; input cmti10
This is METAFONT, Version 2.718 (Web2c 7.0)

(/usr/local/share/texmf/metafont/cmti10.mf
(/usr/local/share/texmf/metafont/cmbase.mf)
(/usr/local/share/texmf/metafont/textit.mf
(/usr/local/share/texmf/metafont/itall.mf [97] [98] [99] [100] [101] [102]
[103] [104] [105] [106] [107]^C- MakeTeXPK cmr10 300 300 magstep\(0\)

followed by much, much more of the same.

Any clues would be much appreciated!
