Dear list, 

I am a bit confused about what I have to use the new Beamer
exporter.  I have customized the org-export-backends variable to include
the Beamer exporter, and now it shows as an option when I do C-c C-e.  I
have also created a toy org file:

----start org file------------------
#+TITLE: Example Presentation
#+AUTHOR: Julian Burgos
   
* This is a structural section
** Frame 1
This is frame 1
** Frame 2 
This is frame 2
----end org file------------------

If I try to use any of the Beamer export commands, I get an "Wrong type
argument: stringnp, nil" error.

If I check the *Messages* buffer, these are the messages generated after
trying to export:

Debug (ox-odt): Searching for OpenDocument styles files...
Debug (ox-odt): Trying /usr/share/emacs/etc/org/styles/... [2 times]
Debug (ox-odt): Trying /home/julian/.emacs.d/etc/styles/...

Debug (ox-odt): Trying /usr/share/emacs/etc/org/schema/... [2 times]
Debug (ox-odt): No OpenDocument schema files installed
org-beamer--normalize-argument: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil

On the other hand, if I add 
#+LaTeX_CLASS: beamer
to the org file and use the "non-beamer" latex export commands, I get
the presentation in beamer with no problems, the old fashion way.  What
I am doing wrong? 

Many thanks,

Julian
