Hello list, I'm trying to get some old windows Win95/98 games to run without too much luck. This example is a Sierra Hoyle Classic Games CD from 1998, which should be enough to keep my wife happy without having to reboot my computer back into windows...if I can get it to work. The installer itself runs fine, and even plays a sample sound clip to test the sound before installing. After

Hello, I've been trying every now and then to find a cross operating system solution that would let me access PostgreSQL (and PostGIS) from R, or to access R from PostgreSQL. I know of pl/r, which accomplishes the latter, but has yet to be successfully ported to Windows. Similarly, I've tried to use Rdbi and DBI, but I haven't had luck with those on Windows either for connecting to

Hello list, I'm really new to this sort of thing, and I just installed Icecast on a WinXP machine. As far as I can tell, the server itself is running, but I have no clue how to get it to actually serve audio content. Basically, I have a rather large folder-tree of mp3s (and some oggs) stored in a directory called "c:/mp3s" (for example). I want to make these available as my own

Hello list, I'm just getting started with R, and I'm trying to determine how R treats large numbers that have decimals. Take the following two examples: > x <- c(999999999999999.9) > sprintf("%.5f",x) [1] "999999999999999.87000" > y <- c(9999999999999999.9) > sprintf("%.5f",y) [1] "10000000000000000.00000" I realize that I have

Hello list, I'm a newbie wine user, and I'm just trying to get my first installation working. I installed (and reinstalled) the FC4 i686 rpm, and when I run winecfg, I get the following errors: Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified err:imagelist:ImageList_ReplaceIcon no color! err:imagelist:ImageList_ReplaceIcon no color!

Hello list, I've been trying to get the PostgreSQL PL/R library to compile on windows (http://www.joeconway.com/plr/). The author of this library says the problem is likely because the distributed R.dll isn't compiled as a shared dll. Is this the case? If so, is there any way to compile it such that it is shared? If that's not the case, than maybe someone on this list has a better

Hello List, I'm a very new user to the R system. I'm only beginning to learn the basics, but so far I've been able to do little more than try a few examples, and of course begin reading the documentation. My primary motivation for exploring R is the availability of tools like the 'spdep' package for calculating spatial statistics such as Geary's C and Moran's

Hello list, Out of interest, I've been trying to compile R on WinXP with MinGW/MSYS. I've been following the instructions for compiling R on windows as closely as possible. Below is my configure statement, which seems to work okay except that no browser or pdf viewer is found, and html docs will not be compiled... I've tried enabling/disabling many different options, and I also add

Hello list, I'm just getting started with using R - I have been trying over the past day or so to work out a method for generating voronoi polygons for PostGIS using SQL. I was able to put together a procedure which works relatively well, but is somewhat inefficient. Someone on the PostGIS list pointed me to the deldir() function in R, for which I can export a text file with x/y coordinates
