A while ago I posted the message:
> I am not getting ESS to work (as a regular user). I am running XEmacs v.
21.1

"Process R is not running" (...) However, everything works OK if I am
root.
It turns out the problem was related to the pty permissions being too
restrictive in suse; see the article

Once I fixed it, everything worked OK.
