Invocation of randomForest() using the iris example in the help file crashes R with a segmentation fault. This happens on all of our ultraSPARC machines running Solaris 2.7. We're using R-1.4.1, compiled using Sun cc and f77 and the flags: CC=cc CFLAGS="-xO5 -xlibmil -dalign" FC=f77 FFLAGS="-xO5 -xlibmil -dalign" "make check" runs withour errors, and R has been

Binary distributions of R-0.49 for NEXTSTEP (Intel and M68k) are now available on CRAN: http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/R/bin/i386-nextstep/R.0.49.I.b.tar.gz http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/R/bin/m68k-nextstep/R.0.49.N.b.tar.gz Because NEXTSTEP doesn't support dynamic loading, I've compiled in a number of additional functions (mostly from the user contributed section of CRAN) which I find

Perhaps this has been mentioned and I wasn't paying attention. When I try to import a postscript file (which is EPS according to the R help on postscript) my Framemaker filter chokes. If I simply edit the first line of the file to put %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0 rather than %!PS-Adobe-3.0 it works just fine. It sure would be simpler if the postscipt driver put this in the file.

For disk space reasons, I have the Sun FORTRAN and C comiplers available, but not C++. In the past, I have successfully built R using these compliers along with the C++ provided by gcc. Now, the configure script in 1.5.0 fails with the following errors: checking how to get verbose linking output from f77... -v checking for Fortran 77 libraries... -L/usr/local/lib -R/opt/SUNWspro/lib

Hello R users, This question might be already discussed before, I apologize if it is the case. Simple... how can I do to include a figure in a latex document. As I have already done in Splus, I tried this: \begin{figure} \special{psfile=gauss.ps .......} \end{figure} but it didn't work. Any help? Thank you in advance. PS: I let down the Mac and the MS Window platforms and I am back to my

I am creating postscript-graphics in R. When I import them into a LATEX document it is impossible to get the caption close to the figure. I run the same program in Splus, and no problem of getting the caption just below the figure. Another thing, the ps file that S created is only 10% of the size of the file that R created. What is wrong? Are there some parameters to be set? Helgi

Dear R-expert, Is it possible to save graph from R into Latex document? I?can?see save as metafile , PNG, pdf etc, but I'm not sure which one to use. Thank ?you so much for your help.

I have several old encapsulated postscript graphics generated by R that I want to include in a LaTeX Beamer presentation so I want them in pdf. Under Ubuntu linux typing convert z.eps z.pdf (to use ImageMagick) results in a nice looking graphic but the bounding box is lost. Doing convert z.eps z.epdf results in a fuzzy image with a good bounding box. Does anyone have a nice solution?

postscript() produces files that are not encoded as eps, according to the standard. Hence, word processors such as OpenOffice and AbiWord do not recognise the files as eps. See http://www.postscript.org/FAQs/language/node80.html The problem is in the first line of the postscript file: The header is wrong. It should be: %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0 whereas postscript() produces: %!PS-Adobe-3.0 The

Are the following differences in table() output between versions 1.3.0 and 1.3.1 a feature, a bug or a problem with my implementation? (I am running under Solaris 2.7 SPARC, built using the Sun C and FORTRAN compilers.) Version 1.3.1: > table(c(0,1),c(0,1)) 1 1 1 Version 1.3.0: > table(c(0,1),c(0,1)) 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1

Earlier today I posted a problem importing an R graph into a LaTeX file of seminar class: specifically, the graphic was showing up rotated 180 degrees, along with the rest of the page it was on. In a real victory for open-source software, I got lots of responses with three distinct approaches, each of which appears to solve the problem. Try getting fast, correct help from Microsoft on a Sunday

Dear all, I am trying to compile and install R from sources on Ubuntu GNU/Linux 64 bit. It usually worked flawlessly for me for more than 4 years (32bit and 64bit on Mandrake/Mandriva, Suse, Debian, Ubuntu). However, I am experiencing some problems now -- not during compiling and installing R itself but with the manuals. Maybe someone can help me with it? I tried to find some information in the

Michael Lapsley was suggesting on R-help direct copies to gif/png/jpeg. The following seems to do a sensible job for me of copying the current device to any bitmap format supported by gs. The manipulation is needed to work around assumptions made by postscript(), and I think better fixed in postscript() (but not a couple of days before a release). I want to make onefile=FALSE work on

Dear People, I am trying to include a barplot (see code below), in a latex document. However, the plot appears in totally the wrong position. I know this is not an R question as such, but the eps file is produced by R and I thought that perhaps other people had had similar problems and could give me pointers. Am I doing anything obviously wrong? Sincerely, Faheem Mitha. PS.

Several people have given great advice on how to successfully use X11 on Mac to so we can use the dvi previewer to view latex() output from Hmisc. Now after a version upgrade of X11 and X11sdk we are getting lots of crashes. I noticed a Mac dvi previewer with an executable stored as /Applications/TeX/TeXShop.app/Contents/MacOS/TeXShop Can we bypass X11 problems and point Hmisc to this
