Is there anyway to change the "proof" environment?
Sometimes the "white square" at the end of the proof gets pushed onto the next page, so it looks really stupid because there is nothing but a white square on the first line on the next page...

Perhaps post such a LyX example, which shows the problem, so it can be used to fix it.

The problem here is, that you end your proof with a displayed math formula, that's why the end mark goes to the next line, which may be on the next page.
That'a a common problem with theorems and proofs, which end with a displayed equation. The
ntheorem package can fix that, just have a look at the documentation.
However, the easiest fix is, to end a proof with normal text. Think about it - it can be a better style, to end the proof with a short conclusion or a statement, instead if just letting a formula abruptly end it.
