Re: lilypond-book --pdf doesn't work for me

This is a followup to my own post, after trying some more things.

Googling on this error message, I find
<http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=nonpdfsp> which
suggests that I should replace the line:

\usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}

with:

\usepackage{graphicx}

This is in fact what I've done when I've used pdflatex with graphicx
in non-lilypond contexts.  

But when I use this with lilypond-book pdflatex complains:


    pdflatex> loading : Context Support Macros / PDF (2004.03.26)
    pdflatex> ) (./lily-699cf55d03-systems.tex

    pdflatex> ! LaTeX Error: File `lily-699cf55d03-1' not found.

    pdflatex> See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
    pdflatex> Type  H <return>  for immediate help.

    pdflatex> l.1 \includegraphics{lily-699cf55d03-1}
                                       

I have the same problem when I say:

\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}

address@hidden:~/src/lilypond/test$ ls out/lily-699cf55d03-1*
out/lily-699cf55d03-10.eps  out/lily-699cf55d03-16.eps
out/lily-699cf55d03-11.eps  out/lily-699cf55d03-17.eps
out/lily-699cf55d03-12.eps  out/lily-699cf55d03-18.eps
out/lily-699cf55d03-13.eps  out/lily-699cf55d03-19.eps
out/lily-699cf55d03-14.eps  out/lily-699cf55d03-1.eps
out/lily-699cf55d03-15.eps
address@hidden:~/src/lilypond/test$ 

So it looks like my version of pdflatex isn't finding .eps files with
no extension.

But when I add the extension, pdflatex says:

! LaTeX Error: Unknown graphics extension: .eps.

My impression is that pdflatex expects graphics as a png, jpg, or pdf,
not as an eps file.

Is anyone running Linux using the --pdf option to lilypond-book, and
if so can you send me a sample .lytex file?
