[OS X Emacs] Struggling with Aquamacs + org-mode + beamer + texlive

[Philip J. Hollenback]

Hi All,

I'm curious if others are using the combination of 

Aquamacs 2.1
org-mode-7.01g
macports texlive 2009
beamer

?

I've been trying to use that stack to generate presentations from
org-mode documents, with mixed success.  I do have pdf generation
working, but my beamer output is weird - for example I can't get blocks
to appear in the final output, everything gets converted to nested
lists.

I don't think this problem is specific to Aquamacs, its probably down in
org-mode or texlive or beamer.  However I'm posting here in the hope
that maybe other Aquamacs users have already gone down this path and
could give me some pointers.

For example, should I try a different tex distribution?  It's unclear to
me which is the recommended one for use on macs.

Thanks,
P.
