similar to: New Quantian release with over 800 CRAN/BioC packages

[ 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. Feedback welcome, but

Dear, "Xenoppix-x86-64(Xen3.0.2+KNOPPIX-x86_64-5.0.1) CD size" is released. http://unit.aist.go.jp/itri/knoppix/xen/index-en.html Xenoppix-x86-64 exploits latest CPU (Intel Core2 Duo and AMD Athlon64). * Xenoppix-x86-64 boots both X86 and X86_64 linux kernel on HVM of Xen. * Xenoppix-x86-64 looks like KNOPPIX but all packages are replaced for X86_64. * Xenoppix-x86-64 also

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

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

Installing R on Knoppix Knoppix is a small LINUX distribution (http://www.knoppix.net/) runnable from a CD (without an installation) It can be also installed on a hard drive from a single CD. The idea was to reuse an old laptop with 6gb hard drive and 128mb memory. I had few days experience with Linux and few years experience with R. The latter was not required :-) The Knoppix installation

Dear All, I am trying to install R using debian's apt-get system. When I do 'apt-get install r-base', it appears to install everything correctly. However, when I start up R I get the error message: " knoppix at Geron007:/knoppix$ R cannot find system RenvironError in options(...) : invalid editor parameter R : Copyright 2003, The R Development Core Team Version 1.7.1

It's generally said that OM needs lots more swap than plain Linux. There has to be someplace to juggle processes around. We use 4 GB nodes with something like 12 GB swap; that plus round-robin logins to distribute home nodes seemed to solve a lot of our problems. To use oMFS to allow processes to write from the node they've migrated to you also need DFSA enabled. That sounds like a great

Memory could be an issue. The three nodes in the cluster we are using only have 512 MB. The machines are otherwise identical in terms of hardware. They are dual PIIIs (purchased from Penguin Computing in 2001). (If you need specs on motherboard etc, we can get that info together.) The installed operating system is RHEL-3, standard workstation with some additional libraries (e.g., all of the

I'm building a package (rasmol, if you must know) from an srpm. It's an FC20 pkg, nothing older, but the software itself hasn't changed. So... I try the build, and it fails, telling me: gcc: %__global_ldflags: No such file or directory make: *** [rasmol] Error 1 Now, this isn't a brand-new package, so I'm puzzled by the error. Is there supposed to be something I need to add to

Or just go Quantian and be happy: It has R and most of CRAN and BioC packages included. http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/quantian.html Andy From: Brett Magill > > Better yet, forget reading the SUSE manual.

Hi there, We're currently attempting to explain a slowdown of an LVQ-type parallel analysis we're working on. We are benchmarking our analysis running over openMosix against the same running via SNOW for R. Both perform similarly on small datasets, but on large datasets SNOW drastically outperforms openMosix. However, these results are achieve running SNOW on the default RedHat

Hi there, We're attempting to run an LVQ analysis over a cluster of machines via R and openMosix. R spawns several child processes simply by writing commands to several files and using system() to start a slave process. The processes migrate perfectly, and often finish with no reported errors, writing their results into respective files for the parent process to piece together.

Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this question. In that event, please point me in the right direction. My question is whether or not I can use Xen with OpenMosix. The upshot of what I''m attempting to do is this: 1. Build a two to four node cluster using OpenMosix for "raw horsepower" 2. Use Xen on the OpenMosix cluster to divide the "raw horsepower" any
