Re: [O] Can't get dvipng to work

Hi Ken,

So in short I think the easiest course of action is upgrading to the
newest release, e.g. using ELPA (M-x list-packages).

I cannot reproduce using emacs -q.

Does it work as expected when you try from emacs -q?

Are you using the new exporter?  It's named ox now, but it might be
org-export in your version.  In v8 you'd need to require ox-html.

Have you tried your document with v8?

Do you have dvipng installed?  I install it via texlive, e.g.

   tlmgr install dvipng
