Yeah, it's really easy to miss package conflicts when using LyX. I
actually started using LaTeX through LyX (and this was years ago,
before I'd even heard of XeTeX), and because it didn't support the
packages I was using, almost everything I did was in ERT (evil red
text). So I ended up just editing the tex files by hand. Which was
fine, until someone else edited it using LyX and added other
packages...

I forget what xltxtra loads, but I think it loads fontspec, xunicode
at least, so those two package calls can also be deleted.
