Hi,

 I have followed this tutorial to export from org to beamer frames.
http://orgmode.org/worg/exporters/beamer/ox-beamer.html .
Unfortunately, the frames are not created for 2nd level headings.
Instead, subsections are used. I am using org-mode from the git
repository, pulled today using commit f871fb6 . I have tried both
org-export-to-pdf and org-beamer-export-to-pdf . The first is not
effective (LaTeX output below). The latter throws an error
"org-beamer--normalize-argument: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil" .

Please do not use the first one, it belongs to the old exporter.

I cannot reproduce you problem. You may want to check if your
installation is correct.
