Hi John,
This is an interesting bug. When I use the stable version of org i.e. 8.2.1
everything works as expected.
To use xelatex I included the following in my .emacs file (some code I picked
up several years ago
(setq org-latex-pdf-process (list
"xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o
%f"
"xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o
%f"
)) ;; for multiple passes
With regards to the split beamer theme this is included in beamer. I am using
texlive 2013 on the mac.
thanks
M
