OK, I'm possibly seeing some improvement here.  I logged into my server,
which has no other org or emacs-related software installed.  I followed your
procedure precisely, with a fresh emacs23 install.  Trying to export gives
me the following errors:

Loading /home/matt/src/oo/lisp/org-vm.el (source)...done
Loading /home/matt/src/oo/lisp/org-w3m.el (source)...done

-----------------------
the odt file doesn't end up being produced at all, presumably something
about the R buffer (don't know why that would be).

interestingly, on my laptop I simply cannot get the O and o menu items to
show up in the export menu buffer.  On this new machine, they only appear
after I reload org-mode.  Not sure why this is the cae, I suppose it could
somehow be related.  Like most people I have a fair number of
emacs-relatedpackages installed on my laptop....

thanks again, best,
Matt
