Just this morning, I found (again!, we had something close to this before) the following related bugous behavior : After interrupting a plot (which would have taken a few minutes and was "wrong" anyway), starting another plot, interrupting again [with C-c], and maybe the same once more, R started just giving a ">" prompt but did not react any further at all. (C-c would return the prompt, but no other reaction was possible) Only killing the R process helped. I may try to reproduce more exactly later today.

I've recently noticed this problem when I tried to change the colortype. For this you have to shutdown all devices, then I got the error messages. I figured this might be an "AIX" thing at first... Possibly related (if not, I'll file separate bug reports): 1) I cannot reset the colortype. When I run out of colors, I used to be able to just shutdown all devices, then restart with x11(colortype=....). Now I get: R> x11() R> plot(1:100,col=rainbow(100)) Error in plot.xy(xy, type, col = col, pch = pch, cex = cex, bg = bg, lty = lty, : Error: X11 cannot allocate additional graphics colors. Consider using X11 with colortype="pseudo.cube" or "gray".

Consider using X11 with colortype="pseudo.cube" or "gray". In addition: Warning messages: 1: X11 protocol error: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) 2: X11 protocol error: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) 3: X11 protocol error: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) R> dev.off() null device 1 R> x11(colortype="gray") R> plot(1:100,col=rainbow(100)) Error in plot.xy(xy, type, col = col, pch = pch, cex = cex, bg = bg, lty = lty, : Error: X11 cannot allocate additional graphics colors.

In addition: Warning messages: 1: X11 protocol error: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) 2: X11 protocol error: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) 3: X11 protocol error: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) R> dev.off() null device 1 2) Plots are not updated if the window is made visible (from being partially obscured) during a computation before or during the plot. Let's say my xterm (or emacs window) covers the north-west quadrant of R's x11 device window. Then: R> data(iris) R> pairs(iris[,1:4]) While pairs is drawing, I bring the device window to the front. All plots that were drawn by pairs will not be redrawn once pairs is done. So I have to push the device window in the back, then bring it to the front again to force a redraw/refresh. This gets really annoying when you have two X11 devices open. If you bring the inactive one to the front while R is busy plotting on the active device, the inactive one will not be redrawn/refreshed once plotting is done. Just white space staring back at you...
