I post this message on R-help mailing list but someone emailed me that I can get
helped if I post this one on R-devel mailing list.
I have a small handheld pc having ARM process as a CPU. I installed
debian and installed R (R-1.7.0 base and core, help html, latex-help) using
apt-get command. Everything worked great
except for drawing even simple graphs
x <- 1:10
plot(x)
I got error messages
1: Nonfinite axis limits [GScale(nan,nan,1, .); log=0]
2: relative range of values = 9.0072e+15 * EPS, is small
(axis 1).
3: Nonfinite axis limits [GScale(-inf,inf,2, .); log=0]
4: relative range of values = 9.0072e+15 * EPS, is small
(axis 2).
I searched R-help Archives hoping answers to this problem and ran
into this message
*****************
Debian tries to build its packages on a variety of platforms. The arm
platform compiled 0.90.1 (the last Debian release before the Debian
package required an Atlas library, something we no longer require) failed in
'make check'. The log snippet follows; I traced this to the
example(Bessel)
code.

Is there any way I can fix this problem ? I checked Debain FTP sites
to find Atlas but there is no Atlas lib for arm.
