For many years, when my R process starts up I've been automatically setting my preferred default plot colors, basically like so: my.colors <- c("black" ,"red" ,"gold" ,"sky blue" ,"green" ,"blue" ,"orange" ,"grey" ,"hot pink" ,"brown" ,"sea green" ,"cyan"

Dear Sanjeev, It seems that you system neither supports X11 devices nor cairo devices. See http://lmgtfy.com/?q=R+unable+to+open+connection+to+X11 for possible solutions. Best regards, ir.

This is not an R issue so this is not a good venue... it has to do with which support software you have (not) installed. Try the R-sig-debian mailing list. Please clarify to them how you installed R... for Debian there are relevant deb packages and a corresponding Debian repository that provide the simplest route to a working system, but if you compile it yourself it is easy to miss dependencies.

Thanks for your reply. I searched for the error on Google before resorting to the R forum (help group). I tried Sys.env(...) too, but didn't resolve the error I get. Hence I am looking for solution. -- -----Original Message----- From: Thierry Onkelinx [mailto:thierry.onkelinx at inbo.be] Sent: Thursday, February 01, 2018 10:57 AM To: Sariya, Sanjeev <ss5505 at cumc.columbia.edu>

Hi all, I'm having trouble getting x11 to work with R. (This is on Debian testing.) I installed r-base and r-base-dev, and then r-cran-cairodevice. I also tried installing the Cairo package within R, which appears to work fine. This what I'm seeing: > capabilities() jpeg png tiff tcltk X11 aqua http/ftp sockets TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE

Hi, I run R on a unix server and login from a Mac with ssh -X.

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but I recently noticed something strange with X11 forwarding over SSH. I was running X11 on my Mac (OS X Server 10.4.8) and had two separate SSH sessions open to two different Linux boxes (I used the -Y flag). I started Firefox on the first box and then subsequently started Firefox on the second box. But instead of starting a new

Greetings - My objective is to get a full Gnome GUI console display to show in an Xming window on my Win7 box. I do a similar thing with my Raspberry Pi so that it operates headless with just the power and network cord attached. My CentOS 6 box and the Win7 box are on the same network within my office LAN behind a good firewall. For various reasons that I won't go into I am unable to
