dbus is launching via standard rc.conf mechanism, with a 
'starting dbus' message displayed during boot. Do you suppose I 
need the 'dbus-launch' statement in addition to that?

I now have showing in 'env':

XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/tmp/runtime-bob

and, fwiw:

QTDIR=/usr/pkg/qt5

AT THIS STAGE of the game, at least on launch from the 
command-line lyx is not just crashing and dumping core. 'ps' 
shows a running lyx process, but it doesn't seem able to reach 
the point whereat it would display itself. I have DISPLAY set in 
the env:

DISPLAY=:0

But the game's afoot!

Thank you.
