Could you have installed LyX as root rather than as you?

I suspect the reason your menus are AWOL is that the .ui file being used 
is trying to load stdmenus.inc from the root > ... directory and not 
finding it. If true, that means you will also presumably be lacking the 
toolbars.

If you change the UI selection to /usr/share/lyx/ui/default.ui, save and 
restart LyX, does it start with the menu visible?
