Hello,
i have some problems concerning auctex in emacs23 on ubuntu 11.04.
My problem is that when i open a *.tex file the menu items "Preview",
"Latex" and "Command" are available but when i press the button they don't
open. When i use one of the options of these menues (f.e. C-c C-p C-d of
"Preview") it works.
How do i get the menus working properly?
Could it maybe be that the problem are my duplicate Lisp files?
When i do <M-x> list-load-path-shadows <RET>:

Why do you have these duplicate files? Did you install two different versions/packages of AUCTeX?

I first installed the I standard AUCTeX package of the Ubuntu 11.04
Software Center but i deinstalled it because it has some bug and
AUCTeX didn't work.
Then I installed an debian AUCTeX package like mentioned in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ghostscript/+bug/543266/comments/28
AUCTeX now seems to work except for the mentioned problems.
As you said it seems like I have still two version but dpkg says:
ungerade@ungerade-laptop:~$ dpkg --get-selections | grep auctex
auctex install
I don't know how to get rid of the needless installation.
Thanks,
Stefan

List the contents of the installed package, remove what's not listed as part of the package!

ungerade@ungerade-laptop:/usr/share/emacs$ dpkg -L auctex | grep 23.2
had no result.
So I deleted the auctex-files in this folder:
ungerade@ungerade-laptop:/usr/share/emacs/23.2/site-lisp/auctex$ sudo rm -r *
After this action emacs didn't start anymore so I copied them back.
Any ideas what I should do next?
Thanks,
Stefan

A different Linux/UNIX?
You could try to correct load-path. You could try to find out, with some trace command or such, which files are actually opened and loaded by GNU Emacs. One of them might cause the failures.
A very useful option is to launch GNU Emacs with -Q, i.e. without any customisation. Then, in *scratch* buffer, you can prepare it to load auctex and preview-latex etc. Then open a (La)TeX file and see if the behaviour is different from that when launched customised. If it is, try to launch with -q (no personal customisation, only that from the system). Are auctex and preview-latex already loaded (the *Messages* buffer might tell)? Then you don't need to repeat anything. If not, what is the behaviour when you prepare things again manually in *scratch* buffer and open a (La)TeX file? Is the setting of the variable reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX necessary? What is the behaviour when you don't load preview-latex? Is AUCTeX finding your TeX distribution? Do you know the AUCTeX mail list? Maybe it's for bug reporting…
