I tried the same (e.g. lyx -dbg gui) but using also non-existing userdir.

The command I used was:
	$ lyx2.4 -userdir ~/.lyx.test -dbg gui

The first thing I was asked if I want to create this new dir.
(Since you did not mention anything like that, I suppose you are using an old userdir)

The output was similar to yours (but without the xcb-error-messages)

So I propose to try with a non-existing userdir.
