Greetings Kevin, Hmmm. The line in your .emacs file looks identical to mine, though the location itself is different. Is it possible that some permissions need to be changed? I am not familiar with the lilypond-doc package, having downloaded the documentation with the --documentation flag to the .sh script. Also, my distro is Ubuntu, not Fedora. Anyone else with ideas? I don't understand how you can access the Internals and the Music Glossary but not other .info files!
