The explanation given seems plausible although I haven't verified it: Qt does have a plugin system for image loading and KDE 4.0.0 seems to have managed to ship a broken plugin to load .eps images. Apart from upgrading simply removing that plugin might work. > Or, more to the point, what should I do to make LyX or tetex use the > other eps tools that do work?
