Dear, I recently installed R 2.15.3 and R-package named ?rattle? for data mining. After I typed ?rattle()? for start, pop-up window appeared. (pop-up window saying "Need GTK+? --> Install GTK+ / Do not Install GTK+"" Whether I clicked ?OK? or "Cancel", error message appeared. (Error message saying "... failed to load RGtk2 dynamic library, attpempting to install it... gtk already been installed..." Even after I intalled RGtk2 first and tried to excute rattle(), the same error message appeared. How do I get to start with rattle? I remember that I used rattle last summer without any problems. Could you pls help me out? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Unable-to-start-with-package-rattle-tp4661881.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Works for me, have you run update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE) recently? Otherwise, check your GTK installation.

Thank you for reply. After I updated packages as you said, the same error message appeared. I have installed RGtk2 and RGtk Extras. Is there additional GTK I need? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Unable-to-start-with-package-rattle-tp4661881p4661885.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

RGtk2 is only interface support for GTK www.gtk.org/ Please read the Posting Guide and begin including context in your replies. You need to share details regarding your OS (also requested in the PG) and the version of your GTK2. At least in the MacOS world there are specifics about the GTK2+ versions that are critical to success with rattle(). There is a binary version of GTK 2.18.? that is known to work, since there were repeated problems wtih user attmpts ot compile from source.> -- > View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Unable-to-start-with-package-rattle-tp4661881p4661885.html > Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.Also: Posting from Nabble may have the consequence that some of your messages will be automatically discarded by the spam filters. -- David Winsemius, MD Alameda, CA, USA
Thank you so much! After setting up GTK, rattle works! I think the problem was caused because GTK had not been installed automatically. I guess it has something to do with the fact that my labtop is not private. Thanks again. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Unable-to-start-with-package-rattle-tp4661881p4662003.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
