R help - Sep 2010 - Emacs/R graphics / Win32

Dear all,
apologies for a question that is probably more to the Windows that R/Emacs.
Still, please, does anybody else encounter this problem?

I use R-2.11.1 with GNU Emacs/ESS (the same behaviour with Xemacs 21.4.22/ESS)
under WinXP (32bit).
All runs ok but when invoking graphics window (any plot), R freezes (emacs still
run).
This is obviously problem of one machine, on another installation all works fine
but I am unable to track the cause for this behaviour.

Any hints?

Thanks a lot!

Zden?k,

The way to isolate the problem is to start
emacs with
   emacs -q --no-site-files
then manually load ess-site.el
and start R.

We hope that runs normally.
Then add additional lines from your site-start.el
and your .emacs until you find the problem line.

Followup should be on the ESS mailing list
ess-help at stat.math.ethz.ch
