Iam trying to put a figure on my a0poster. But I get the error message: LaTeX error: Float(s) lost; and my figure is suppressed. I have subdivided my a0poster into regions using minipages. My figures are in eps-format. The figures get converted into pdf without problems. Could somebody give me a hint how to overcome my problem?

You can find (most of) the answer in How to add a page number to the included PDF pages?
When using using PDFpages to include external PDFs in a LyX document, LyX adds the following LaTeX code:
\includepdf{filename}
To add pagenumbers at the bottom of each page, this has to be changed to e.g.
\includepdf[pagecommand={\thispagestyle{plain}}]{filename}
In LyX, this optional argument (what is in the brackets) is added via the settings for the included material. This is the second tab in the window that pops up when you do Insert --> File --> External material, LaTeX and LyX options. In the option field, add e.g. pagecommand={\thispagestyle{plain}}. For figures you've added already, right click them and choose Settings.
I didn't attempt to trace what your code is doing but the figureseries float code is losing the existing double column floats that are pending at this point. If you flush them out with \clearpage then no floats are lost.
