Hi Myles, I followed the directions. I created bug.sty and minimal.el in the same directory and it worked for me. My ox.elc was in /home/evan/Documents/org/elisp/org-mode.

[O] Preview LaTeX fragment not working (for me)
I am trying to Preview LaTeX fragment (11.7.4). I have the preview working in Preview LaTeX but when I (C-c C-x C-l) org-mode shows empty boxes. The org mode file is: #+OPTIONS: tex:dvipng #+OPTIONS: toc:nil #+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{tikz} #+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{attrib} #+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{amsmath} #+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{/home/evan/Documents/chicago/learning/Causality/bug.sty} #+LATEX_HEADER: \let\iint\undefined #+LATEX_HEADER: \let\iiint\undefined #+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{dsfont} #+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[retainorgcmds]{IEEEtrantools} * Model :export: \( e^{i\pi}=-1 \). \alpha Let us start with a nested theoretical model: \begin{equation*} \begin{array}{rcl} y & = & [1, x_1, x_2] \begin{bmatrix} \beta_0 \\ \beta_1 \\ \beta_2 \end{bmatrix} + \epsilon_w \\ x_1 & = & \mathds{1}_{[-1 + \beta_4 \cdot x_4 + \beta_5 \cdot x_5 + \epsilon_j]} \end{array} \end{equation*} The exported LaTeX buffer generates the appropriate formula images.
