Export to LaTeX Beamer. [WAS: Re: [Orgmode] Re: LaTeX export bugs?]

Hello:

I was happy to see a simple formula for exporting to Beamer.  The following worked initially.  However, this initialization routine was able to run only when org-latex had already been loaded.

Is it possible to put this inside of a hook (say, when org-latex was loaded, or when the document class was beamer during the export process)?

Emacs just reports the following when this code is included into the init file:

       Symbol's value as variable is void: org-export-latex-classes

After explicitly loading the library "org-latex" the code is executed and the procedure works for exporting the example file---given that the latex code must be cleaned up. 

I haven't yet tried the following as a heading line:

       #+OPTIONS: toc:nil

Would that solve the problem you reported?

Thank you for this helpful advice.
