All, I have previous built R from source many times, generally, without problems. However on my new Ubuntu 15.04 Linux system with R 3.2.2 when I run the command dev.list() I get:> dev.list()NULL At the completion of running ./configure, I have R is now configured for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu Source directory: . Installation directory: /usr/local C compiler: gcc -std=gnu99 -g -O2 Fortran 77 compiler: gfortran -g -O2 C++ compiler: g++ -g -O2 C++ 11 compiler: g++ -std=c++11 -g -O2 Fortran 90/95 compiler: gfortran -g -O2 Obj-C compiler: Interfaces supported: X11 External libraries: readline, zlib, lzma, PCRE, curl Additional capabilities: PNG, JPEG, TIFF, NLS, cairo, ICU Options enabled: shared BLAS, R profiling Capabilities skipped: Options not enabled: memory profiling Recommended packages: yes This issue is causing me problems with spplot, which I have posted on r-sig-geo. R and the display of all other graphics seems to be fine, otherwise. My previous installations of R would yield:> dev.list()X11cairo 2 And I had no problems with spplot. Any thoughts?

Dear Tom, Running R 3.2.2 on Ubuntu 15.04, if I run dev.list(), I get NULL. And I guess it is the expected behavior, as per the help page, it "returns the numbers of all open devices, except device 1, the null device". So, if I run x11() dev.list() I get X11cairo 2 HTH, Pascal On Mon, Nov 9, 2015 at 1:03 PM, Thomas Adams <tea3rd at gmail.com> wrote:> All, > > I have previous built R from source many times, generally, without > problems.

Yes, indeed with all "regular" / "default" versions of R. I you don't get that, you must have set something user-specific, or possibly site-specific if you have a particularly customized site maintainer setup.
