We tried getting R to run on the ARM chip (w/Debian Linux) without success at some point. There were some nasty FPU incompatibilities (appeared to be non-IEEE compliant -> mishandling of NA -> downhill from there...). -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.

In the current setting, R 1.5.1 fails with exhausted memory on ppr.f; this might be overcome by turning the default optimization (-O2) off (to -O0). Most of the problems we had were, IIRC, with the c/c++ and fortran interaction for some of the add-on packages. The main R core could work well enough on the Zaurus, but it might need some tender love, care and tweaking.
