I can't check this just now (as I don't have access to my ubuntu machine at the moment) but as I understand it Org-mode is distributed with Emacs now, but the commands in the .emacs file over ride the built in version and use the version in the path set up in .emacs. That is what happens on the Mac, unless I have misunderstood. Thanks, Graham
