Hm. No I didn't, but let's try it:

If I do the following, it works!

1) Change LaTeX-math-list in my .emacs
2) run eval-buffer on my .emacs file
3) go to my latex- buffer and do eval-expression (unload-feature
'tex-site t)   (it only works if I force it, because of dependencies)
4) M-x load-library auctex.el
5) M-x latex-mode

Why would you not really recommend this?

Thanks!
