Hi everybody !
I'm new to R (used to Matlab ...) and I 'd like
to use R at home ...
I've installed it from RPM package (R-base-1.2.1-2.i386.rpm)
on a linux RedHat 7.0, succesfully ....however but I've got
problems with running the demos, it says :
"/usr/lib/R/bin/R.bin : error while loading shared libraries
: /usr/lib/R/bin/R.bin : symbol __sysconf, version GLIBC_2.2
not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference.
and quit R.
Does anybody have an idea of what it means - what I can do
to fix it ?, is it annoying only for the demos or for runnning
other R functions as well ?
another question : I have to deal with large Matrices (usually
1000*600 or more) is R suited for that ?
thanks in advance
Nicolas Fauchereau

If you have enough memory then R handles matrices reasonably efficiently. -thomas Thomas Lumley Asst.

Actually the latest official RH version of glibc is 2.2-12.

I would say you need to upgrade glibc. Red Hat 7.0 comes with a
pre-release version of glibc 2.2. A full version is now available
and the latest release is glibc-2.2-9.i386.rpm.
