MiKTeX 2.8 - beamer problem

Post by sitex »

Hello,

I used the latest version of WinEdt with MikTeX to format the code

Code: Select all

\documentclass{beamer}%
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
test
\end{frame}
\end{document}
The attached log file shows the error I get. Thanks for your replys.

Tom

A well known problem caused by geometry since version 5.0 [1,2]. Try an update of the beamer class on your system. If you don't succeed, use the workaround given in the mentioned topics.

[1] View topic: Beamer - Undefined control sequence
[2] View topic: openSUSE 11.1 TeXLive 2009-39.1 update caused beamer problem


Best regards

Thanks, Thorsten, for your quick and helpful reply. I should have mentioned that I am using the latest release of beamer. Sorry. Your first link provided the (much appreciated) solution.
