A user has crashed R90.1 on MS Windows by succesive calls to two of my formula/function interpretors in an order that I had not foreseen. I have checked and this also occurs with Intel RH5.2. I have distilled the problem down to its bare bones as the following set of instructions: func <- function(.mu){ .ch1 <- deparse(.mu,width=500)[-1] .fn <-

When I attempt to install the online help for R.99 on Intel RH5.2, I get the following message Substitution loop at /usr/local/src/R/etc/Rdconvlib.pl line 1589, <rdfile> chunk 171 and it stops after a few files. Each time I rerun it, it gets a bit further and gives a different number at the end. I commented out the line 1589 and it works.

It seems to me the following should work (in fact, it comes from someone's SPlus file). Instead, it reads the first 8 lines and then spits out syntax errors. Using nlines=36 works. Using nmax does not. Intel RH5.2 with R90.0. Debugging shows it must be internal. Jim junk <- scan(file="",list(i=0,r1=0,r2=0,lull="",day=""),n=5*36) 1 3 5 no 1 2 1

With 0.64.1 on Intel RH5.2, abc <- list() abc$abc$abc <- matrix(1:20) mt <- terms(~(abc$abc$abc[,1]==64)|(abc$abc$abc[,1]==65)|(abc$abc$abc[,1]==75) |(abc$abc$abc[,1]==84)|(abc$abc$abc[,1]==85)) model.matrix(mt,model.frame(mt)) crashes. With ab$ab$ab, it does not. Apparently, the bug I reported for 0.64.0 has just been pushed back one step. Jim

Well here is my (first) segmentation fault for this version (R0.90.0) on Intel RH5.2: x <- matrix(0,nrow=1,ncol=3) y <- c(0.1,10,0.01) rbind(x,y) Jim -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the

I was getting worried. 0.65 is the first version that I had not been able to crash. Well the following gives a seg fault on Intel RH5.2 with R0.65.1: plot(rnorm(20),xlab=expression(mu[Inf])) You can guess what I was trying to do, as I used infty first and that did not work.

Hi, I'm trying to replace an NT SBS box with a RH5.2 box, and things are proceeding quite well, save a few samba troubles. I've found that the NT4WS (SP4) clients can log in if told to use a samba machine as a "workgroup", but that they can not find a domain controller if told to use "domain" logons. (They have the registry password encryption hack installed.)

R1.2.0 with Linux RH5.2 I do not believe that the problems below are new to 1.2 but I only cover this sort of thing once a year in my course and some of that happened to be last Friday so too late to report for 1.2. I see that one or two things that I was going to report have been corrected. I like the fact that interactions now show : instead of . Here is some output with comments inserted. R

Hello - I cannot get to www.alpha.luc.ac.be/~jlindsey/rcode.html<http://www.alpha.luc.ac.be/%7Ejlindsey/rcode.html>to obtain and install the repeated library for use of glmm(). Is the web page not active? Can you give me an alternative location to obtain the repeated library? Thank you, Becky Parker [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

People, This doesn't seem possible - would it be possible to hack a version of rsync to do it? As an exercise, I want to create a VM image (or at least backup of all the files with rsync) from a SCSI drive in an old Red Hat (NOT Enterprise) v5.2 Linux 486 machine (circa 1999 that does have rsync on it but it has protocol problems talking my server). The 486 has: - an ISA Adaptec 1542

Having compiled and successfully installed e1071 on a previous machine (and run under 0.62.4) I want to compile it on a new machine to run under 0.63.3 but the loader can't find netpbm - both machined are RH5.2 Linux installations. I have some quite old netpbm's on a CD but none more recent and I certainly didn't install them on my old machine. I can't locate or rpm -q or rpm

I have just placed version 0.2 alpha of my library, dna, on my web page at www.luc.ac.be/~jlindsey/rcode.html The R functions in this library cover most of the basic methods of dna and protein sequence analysis. The library includes ports of CLUSTAL W for multiple sequence alignment and flip for finding open reading frames in a dna sequence. There are an enormous number of interesting and

Hello and Happy New R Two points: 1 Noting the existence of 0.63.2 as a tgz file on CRAN, but being careful or lazy depending on how you want to see it, I also note that the binaries for Redhat stop at 0.63.1 on RH 5.1. I recently got the RH 5.2 Power Tools where I was pleased to see R 0.62.4 included, lots of libraries including V&R. This had been compiled into an rpm - does anyone know
