R devel - Mar 2000 - Printing graphs on W98 laptop (PR#477)

Full_Name: Peter Green
Version: 1.0.0 and 0.99.0
OS: windows 98
Submission from: (NULL) (194.83.240.36)


Running R (either 1.0.0 or 0.99.0) under Windows 98 on
my Toshiba laptop (Satellite 4080), I get a problem
when I hit the print toolbar button with the graph window on top.
It declares an illegal operation, and produces the error
messages reproduced below (slightly different in each
version). It then terminates R and returns to the desktop.

The printer is an HP 6MP, directly connected to the laptop,
no network.

All is fine on my desktop with Windows NT4.0.

Is this a known problem?

It's been reported before, but been unreproduceable for any of the
developers... I'm fairly sure this is the exact same spot that tripped
Bendix & coworkers. On their systems it appears to depend on the day
of the week and go away when the system adinistrators are looking!
Yours seems to be the first "plain" system (i.e. non-networked
printers) with the problem. Hmm... Are you any good with a debugger?
