OK, so I give this thing a try.

* Running a freshly compiled Emacs from today's git.

* Commenting out all LilyPond mode stuff from the `.emacs` file.

* Installing 'geiser' and 'geiser-guile' as requested (using `M-x
  package-install`).

* Cloning the 'lilypond-ts-mode' as requested (i.e., I'm using the git
  version of today), also adding

    (add-to-list 'load-path "... path to 'lilypond-ts-mode' repo ...")
    (require 'lilypond-ts-mode)

  to my `.emacs` file.

* Setting

    '(geiser-guile-binary "/usr/local/opt/bin/guile")

  to find my guile binary, which is in a non-standard location.
  Executing `M-x geiser-guile` brings me a guile prompt, so it seems
  to work.  Executing `M-x geiser`, then selecting 'lilypond-guile',
  though, responds with 'No prompt found!', but this is probably
  expected, I guess.

Alas, if I now try to load an arbitrary `.ly` file, I get the error

  File mode specification error:
    (file-missing "Opening directory"
                  "Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden"
                  "/opt/bin")

Directory `/opt/bin` doesn't exist on my openSUSE GNU/Linux box, and I
have no idea where this comes from and what this is referring to...

Please advise.
