The lyx layout is provided by latex-beamer, but not included in the tetex released. Can /usr/share/lyx/layouts/beamer.layout be included?
Wrong place to ask, if it's not distributed in the tarball, it can't be included. And since upstream tetex development ceased in favour of TeX Live, it never will be included in tetex.

Sorry, for the recent duplication of this bug. I understand, that we cant change the contend of the distribution, but what's about given users a hint, that they will need at least lyx 1.4.4 for a proper beamer functionality? So they don't have to investigate their self. greez Moonstruxx
