Hi Nick, Yes, long options do work, even with the alias. emacs starts up, skips my initialization files, and loads the minimal .emacs. M-x locate-library RET org-latex RET points to the org identified in the minimal .emacs. I guess this means that all is well on the org end :) And that my old initialization files didn't make the upgrade to emacs 24 and the emacs 24 starter kit :( Thanks for all your help.
