The make check returned no errors that I could see so it came as a surprise to see this:> plot(8)Error in plot.new() : could not find function "X11" It's possible that there's something different from previous versions with the graphic card driver in this installation but I'm mystified why there didn't seem to be any problem detected (or perhaps, more to the point, reported) during the installation of R. Everything else I've tried to do seems to work, but I don't do a lot in R before there's a reason to draw plots, so I need to find out what's going on. Where do I need to look to work out what could have failed?

Well, in fact it was very simple. There's no "package:grDevices"
in
there. Now, why that didn't happen before, I'm yet to work out.
Thanks for the suggestions.
