[R] R 2.6.0 Error in X11() : could not find X11 fonts
All- I have rhel4 and just installed R2.6.0. The error suggests it cant find the font library. I have failed to trouble shoot. Can anyone help me?

I've looked through archives and found that people had a similar problem with Gentoo Linux which was fixed by some X.org rejigging. But that was with earlier versions of R which never posed a problem for me (nor for you it would seem). I suspect that there's a package I updated which has screwed up things. If you've only recently installed 2.6.0, I suspect you would already have the updated (i.e. buggy) package. Any evidence to support my hypothesis? best -- ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~. ___ Patrick Connolly {~._.~} Great minds discuss ideas _( Y )_ Middle minds discuss events (:_~*~_:) Small minds discuss people (_)-(_) .....
