First attempt with Lilypond - TeX compatibility problems? |

Good evening,
I have just installed Lilypond for the first time and my first
attempts at using Lilypond have been frustrated. I installed Lilypond
2.2.2 (I'm using FreeBSD and this is the version found in the ports
tree).
Following the tutorial, the first file I created contained the following:
{
c' e' g' e'
}
It didn't compile. I got the following error: tutorial.ly:1:1: error:
parse error, unexpected '{' and the following tutorial.ly:2:15:
warning: Braces don't match:
c' e' g'
e'
Now, if the first example from the tutorial doesn't compile, I'm a bit
stuck... I checked and re-checked the file, the braces do match...
maybe this version doesn't like a file starting with { ?
Next, I decided to compile the examples that came with it to see if I
had any better luck. The first one was example-1, with the following
content, comments stripped:
\version "2.2.0"
\score {
\context Voice \notes\relative c {
c' d e f g a b c
}
}
Compiling this file seems to fail at a latter stage. TeX output is
produced, but then it warns that LaTeX failed with the following
message:
! Undefined control sequence.
<argument> \kern 077.1172\outputscale \embeddedps
{000.0650 000.0650 000.312...
l.69 }
%
I have the teTeX-3.0 distribution installed, can this be some kind of
compatibility problem?
Please help if you can. I now music, C++ and LISP very well, and LaTeX
not well at all.
