Hi Henri-Paul,

I'm running =org-version= 7.3 (release_7.3.89.g97f4c.dirty)

I don't have anything in my .emacs about the beamer latex class - it just
works.  The only =org-export-latex-classes= statements that I have are with
some latex classes that I have made myself.

What does your .tex output look like?

Chris
