[XeTeX] Undefined control sequence problems

[Axel Etzold]

Dear all,

when trying to compile a standard .tex file using xetex,
I get lots of "undefined control sequence" errors.
The simple .tex file is below.
I am using xetex on an OpenSuse 10.2 64 bit linux machine.

Thank you for your help!


Best regards,

Axel

Hello, world. I hope to be able to typeset in OpenType Fonts easily in the
future, using accents both in Latex style \'{e}\"{a} and in Unicode, as
well as mathematical $formulae$.
