I may give this a try at work tomorrow... just tried the same file on my
Mac at home (running the same linux setup) and it's working, though I still
get a filename.eps and a filename-eps-converted-to.pdf output. It's just
that the .eps on this computer is valid and viewable.

I'll have to dig into this some more; perhaps comparing org versions and
.emacs config files.

I'm pulling from the org git repo and doing a make now on this computer as
we speak. If it still works, I'll do the same at work tomorrow and see if
that helps.


Thanks for the input,
John
