I use the fink tetex and ghostscript along with TeXShop--it just involves
changing the default file location in the TeXShop preferences.

Refresh my memory:  texlive isn't the same as the Wierda TeX distribution,
is it?  I've only used Wierda's when I did the non-fink TeX and
ghostscript.  In any case, I didn't have the same problems that you seem
to be.  My guess is that there's something strange with the paths--look
at the Engine tab on the Preferences.
