Document Classes ⇒ Beamer - Notes on Laptop, Slides on Overhead

[misha]

Hello, LaTeXers,

I'd like to have notes visible to me on my laptop, while slides
are shown to the audience without my notes.

I tried the \setbeameroption{show notes on second screen} option
and get something that looks like it could be useful if only I
knew how to project one half to the overhead and keep the notes
on my laptop.

If it matters, I'm using:
Windows XP Professional
TeXnicCenter
MiKTeX

Here's my minimal working example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{pgfpages}
\setbeameroption{show notes on second screen}

\title{Epistemology 101}
\author{Socrates Noitall}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}
	\titlepage
	\note{Hi. My name is Socrates.  I will be teaching this course.  
I know everything.  You know nothing.  Watch and learn as best as your 
tiny brain can.  I already know that 90\% of you will fail.  The other 
10\% are worthless, but will pass.  That's life.  Get used to it.}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
	\frametitle{Outline}
		\tableofcontents
	\note{Here are some more insulting comments that I wish to make.  
The class will not see them on the overhead, but I will see them on my 
laptop.}
\end{frame}

\section{Administrative Stuff}
	\begin{frame}
		\frametitle{The Teaching Team}
		\begin{itemize}
			\item Instructor:
				\begin{itemize}
					\item Me---Socrates.  You can call me God, 
but that might confuse some of the people that don't know that I'm God.
				\end{itemize}
			\item Teaching Assistants:
				\begin{itemize}
					\item Knuckleduster O'McFlanagan
					\item Alfarero Peludo
				\end{itemize}
			\item The TAs will fail at their jobs.
			\item So will you, but that won't be their fault.
		\end{itemize}
		\note{I'll be in my office, but don't ever bother me.  
I will bite your head off.  At best, I'll roll my eyes, brush you off, 
and fail to answer your questions.}
	\end{frame}

\end{document}

Thanks for reading.

Ciao,

Misha
