Which is what? (If Sun Grid Engine, not relevant and it is your
unstated OS that we needed to know. Not just 'Linux', but the
precise distro.))
Please do note the posting guide: your R is several versions old, for
example, and this was an R-devel question (most questions about
installing wrapper packages will be, since they are almost nothing to
do with the R language).
The symptoms you post are those of finding a 32-bit libmpi on a 64-bit
install. Please consult the documentation for Rmpi and set the RMPI*
environment variables appropriately for your installed 64-bit libmpi
(regratably Rmpi does not use the recommended methods and so often
needs to be overridden). Also, most modern OSes use OpenMPI and not
lam, so see if you can use the former.
One guess is that it needs to be told to look in /usr/lib64/lam.
OTOH, for x86_64 Fedora 14 I am using
setenv RMPI_INCLUDE /usr/include/openmpi-x86_64
setenv RMPI_LIB_PATH /usr/lib64/openmpi/lib
setenv RMPI_TYPE OPENMPI

Well, first you need to install sprng-2.0b
