[R] using DBI

can anybody provide a reference to a document on using DBI and what is
needed to make it work?

I try: drv=dbDriver("Oracle")

and it complains about not finding a function.
The DBI.pdf does not require anything else installed, but looking at the
archive I discovered there is more stuff to be installed.
This is on Solaris 5.10 with a full Oracle install, so all Oracle libs
are available and sqlplus works.
I am trying to connect remotely to another Oracle instance.

Thank you very much
Stephen
