New Quantian releases with almost all of CRAN / BioC
[ I hope this is not considered off-topic for the list: A new Quantian release was just announced, and it contains even more R. As before, we have R (now 2.2.1), ESS, Ggobi, Rpy, several BioInfo tools -- but now we also have RSPerl, JGR, rJava and more. A full sync to CRAN and BioC as of Feb 25, 2006 now yields dim(installed.packages())[1] of 877. Feed...

Quantian 0.5.9.3 with over 400 CRAN and BioConductor packages
[ Apologies for the cross-post, and I hope this is seen as sufficiently on-topic. Anybody who feels otherwise, please drop me a line off-list. ] Earlier this week I sent out the announcement below for the newest version of Quantian. Quantian is a bootable dvd (based off Knoppix & clusterKnoppix) with well over 1gb of scientific, numerical or quantitative software -- and now contains almost all CRAN and BioConductor packages [1]. I would greatly appreciate feedback, test reports, or suggestions. General questions are more...

Solution of Rcmdr Problem in Quantian OS, Thanks...
As you know, i have problem about Rcmdr in the 2.4.0 version of R, it can't be run properly in Quantian due to that Tcl/Tk does not support it. But, now, with helps from Dirk Eddelbuettel, problem was solved. The solution is just that reinstallation of R from debian packages not by compiling of 2.4.0 version source code. During the process, i noticed a srange thing, that is, if i start R in root user...

Slashdot thread references R/Quantian and another new R/S-PLUS book pending
Greetings all, Just a quick heads up that there is a Slashdot thread this morning on Open Source Math Software for Education, which includes references to R and Dirk's Quantian distribution (among others). The thread is at: http://ask.slashdot.org/askslashdot/04/12/13/2355258.shtml?tid=185&tid=4 The OP's query was targeted for high school to first year college age students, but as is typical with Slashdot, the scope of the dialog tends to wander.... Also, I wa...

How to purchase R on CD
My organization has a policy against "installing software downloaded from the Internet." There is a waiver procedure, but it is difficult and lengthy. It is much easier to get approval to purchase software, even if it is a CD copy of open-source. However, a search on r-project.org didn't seem to show any way of obtaining the distribution in this way. Any clues would be

Portable R?
Hello list, A short time ago, I found http://johnhaller.com/jh/useful_stuff/portable_apps_suite/, which contains basically a complete set of office tools that can be run *entirely* from a USB key. The concept is: - find a Windows PC - put in your USB key - run OpenOffice, Firefox, Gaim, Nvu, Thunderbird, ... directly from your USB key, with no app installation required - save your files wherever

Using GNU R on a two box "cluster"
Hello, right now I'm thinking about running R 2.0.0 on box A (Debian SID) but at the same time having access to the ressources of box B (Ubuntu Linux) regarding disk capacity, RAM, idle CPU cycles . Is there anyone of you that has already installed and administred such a tiny (home based) cluster? Well, the term cluster seems quite a bit of an exaggeration related to what I am looking

Problems installing quantreg
Hi All, I'm trying to install the quantreg library on my MEPIS box (debian-based linux). When I try >install.packages("quantreg") it fails to loads and errors with: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lblas-3. I tried installing a ton of packages to fix the missing part but the only thing I manage to do it cause problems with another shared library and had to re-install a couple of

Installing R on Xandros 3.0
Dear List, After obtaining a second-hand PC and because XP costs too much, I installed Xandros 3.0 (based on Debian) but pretty easy to use if migrating from WinXP. Does anyone know how to install R on this OS? Thank you for your time, Tom Volscho ************************************ Thomas W.

R on amazon's EC2 "cloud"?
Hi All, I was wondering if anybody had experience running R on amazon's ec2 "cloud"? More specifically, has anybody created an "amazon machine image" (AMI) for use with it? I was wondering if there was a quantian type image available as an amazon machine image, maybe running debian or ubuntu? It supports open MPI among other libs which is nice. It would be nice to put together a hardware optimized image that the community could use (eg lapack with openmp blas support that kind of thing), maybe a debian w...

Install R in Linux
Hi, Is it possible to install R in a linux box (Debian) without being a root. I know I can compile the R source code, but there is no F77 compiler on the box. So is it possible to install binary R without being a root? Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
