Works for me on Linux (Fedora Core 3), but another old issue is there:
Links that disappear when returning to the search page, and the search
page is not responding to pgUp/pgDown keys until after the links have
become defunct. Presumably, this means that we can add 1.4.2_06 to the
list of java versions that don't work. (and apparently, no yum
repository is carrying 1.5.0 yet, and I'm not going to mess with other
forms of installs if I can help it).
Did you check out the Windows section on
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html ? (Not that you
actually told us which OS you are running...)
