similar to: Rterm under cygwin hangs after screensaver kicks in

Dear R users, Does anyone notice that Rterm.exe does not work well with rxvt.exe, an xterm emulator for Cygwin? It produces an error message window with the following message: This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. If the problem persists, contact the program vendor It also prints "Signal 127" in rxvt window. Rterm --ess, however, works.

This bug report is mostly a note to myself to track this down: In the version of the Cygwin bash shell I'm currently using, Rterm does not detect that it is being run interactively, so it switches into batch mode, and lots of things stop working. >$ bash --version >GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (i686-pc-cygwin) >Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

FYI, via a bug report of one of my packages, I discovered that the following cases will hang Rterm when using TAB completion: CASE #1: Adding an empty default function for tail() causes Rterm on Windows to hang if one press TAB at the prompt: % Rterm -vanilla > tail.default <- function(...) {} > [PRESS TAB] Error in specialOpLocs(text) : (list) object cannot be coerced to type

rterm --ess --save works fine under both openssh and under putty SSH clients.

I'm having problems getting RTERM to work via SSH. Whenever it has any type of problem, it abends instead of issuing an error message and returning to the > prompt. Both "server" and client are Windows/2000 Professional at FP4. SSH is via Cygwin on both sides. R is version is 1071. RTERM runs fine when run in a BASH shell on the "server," though it does not prompt

Around last weekend, the updated package, gnome-screensaver-2.16.1-8.el5_5.1, came in replacing gnome-screensaver-2.16.1-8.el5. Once our CentOS 5.5 machines are running the new gnome-screensaver, we start seeing problem in unlocking the Gnome screensaver with Kerberos authentication. Unlocking the screensaver with local password works fine. After we back out from the new version, Kerberos

Hello All, I'm trying to set defaults for gnome-screensaver on some Centos6.5 laptops and lock it down with these commands: # gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type boolean --set /apps/gnome-screensaver/lock_enabled true # gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type boolean --set

Hello All, these days one of my tasks is connecting some Centos7 laptops to Freeipa, also running on Centos7. After doing that, some users report nog being able to unlock their screens. Only after reboot are they able to login again. I see this em in /var/log/secure: Aug 10 13:34:37 **** mate-screensaver-dialog: pam_sss(mate-screensaver:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=382900663

I've built some CentOS 5.5 64-bit systems straight off the DVD, full installs, and the Gnome screen lock (manually invoked or automatically via the gnome-screensaver) does not allow the user to unlock the screen. The only fix appears to be ctrl-alt-F<1 - 5> then have the user log into the tty session, type pkill -f gnome-screensaver, log out, then ctrl-alt-f7 to return to X. These

Colleagues, I have encountered the following situation in R (2.9.0) with Windows XP. I have an application that calls Rterm.exe. In certain situations, the application terminates but fails to close R. Then, the next time that the application runs, there are replicated copies of R running - this slows the system. One solution would be to kill any open versions of Rterm.exe each time

I'm at the stage of poking at a C7 install in Vbox, and am struggling to figure out how to control the screensaver. there doesn't seem to be a gnome screensaver package (like there was in gnome2), and I can't find any installed packages that control it. gconf-editor doesn't have anything that looks promising... how does one control the screensaver in Gnome 3? thanks! -- ----

Hello. I am trying to build R on Windows. It appears that my build passes the various "make checks" (unless I missed some error) and running Rterm seems to work fine whereas Rgui has an immediate error stating " AppName: rgui.exe AppVer: 2.150.58871.0 ModName: rzlib.dll ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 0000a9e5 The taskbar still works, but the console window has nothing in it, and

Hello all. The best screensaver of all time in my opinion is E-volved cultures, available here: http://www.xs4all.nl/~notnot/E-volverLUMC/screensaver.html Not only are the images it creates highly aesthetic, but they can seamlessly tile, so they are perfect for many applications. My current desktop was generated by this screensaver. I've tried everything though and it won't show up. I

Dear R-users, When I call Rterm from cygwin, I have no options but typing the exact syntax the first time. If I happen to hit the "delete" key (backspace), R dies when I press enter saying : Error: ... (error concerning the function on the last line of text) Execution halted Perhaps some of you have experienced this and found work arounds? One has to be pretty good to type without

I think the message from Prof. Ripley refers to calling shell and system from R. There is no "system" call in Windows cmd or VBA and I am calling R from VBA. Now I want to use tryCatch to output the error to a text file and exit gracefully. My expression will be source("file.r") and that will contain file I/O and db connect+query. to exemplify I am trying with
