Hi, I'm running debian - upgraded fully to potato at the start of the freeze and added latest libgnome-dev before configuring. I tried compiling with gnome support with /usr/local/R/R-0.99.0/configure --with-gnome and got the following output: checking for gnome-config... /usr/bin/gnome-config checking if /usr/bin/gnome-config works... yes checking for orbit-config...

Hi, I've just upgraded my debian machine to the 2.1 libc6 libraries, and I started getting segmentation faults with R. I tried re-compiling and got the same problem. I checked with the dependencies for the binary package, and I have all the required libraries. Any ideas? Thanks, Robert. ---- Robert King, Australian Environmental Studies, Griffith University, Australia 3875 6677

Apologies for the dumb question, but what happened to error()? How do I fail out of a function? ---- Robert King, Australian Environmental Studies, Griffith University, Australia 3875 6677 Robert.King at mailbox.gu.edu.au http://www.ens.gu.edu.au/robertk/ "It might be in the basement, I'll go upstairs and check .."

I have two factors, WC and WD. If I want a table including all the values of each factor, including NAs, I can get a table by going: table(as.character(WC),as.character(WD),exclude=c()) Is there an easier way? I guess this is a feature request for table() Thanks, Robert. ---- Robert King, Australian Environmental Studies, Griffith University, Australia 3875 6677 Robert.King at

I don't want to re-invent the wheel, and I'm trying to code up something that does a Nelder-Mead simplex method to minimise a non-linear objective function. (I'm porting something I originally wrote in matlab, using the optimisation toolbox funciton fmins). Is there already something available to do this included in R? Do people have suggestions on the best way to do this? Thanks,

In July of 1999 Douglas Bates invited R users to implement an algorithm for non-negative least squares based on Bates and Wolf, 1984: Communications in Statistics, Part B 13:841-850. <http://www.ens.gu.edu.au/robertk/R/help/99b/0058.html> I'm wondering if anybody has implemented this or something similar so I won't have to reinvent the wheel. Thanks! Bob Abugov

Dear /Bill Paterson, while trying to find a way to convert SAS code into R, I came across your one time e-mail message (http://www.ens.gu.edu.au/robertk/R/help/99b/0908.html). I'd appreciate to learn if anything came out of this, or any suggestions. Thank you in advance, Mehmet Somel / -- Mehmet Somel Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology Department of Evolutionary

Thank you Brian Ripley, Gardar Johannesson, and Marcel Wolbers for your prompt and friendly help! I will share any further learnings as I move through these suggestions. -Bob Abugov Brian Ripley wrote: I just use optim() on the sum of squares with non-negativity constraints.

Hi All, Can anyone help me please?I don't know much about segmentation faults.I understand what it is,but why my script's throwing the error i don't know. This is my main function:---- *main<-function()* *{* * dbName<-"xyz_database"* * hostName<-"xyz.com"* * con<-myDbconnect(dbName,hostName) * *

Hi everyone, I'd like a bit of information about the stereo mode settings in psych_44.h of libvorbis. Specifically, about the adj_stereo structure: typedef struct { int pre[PACKETBLOBS]; int post[PACKETBLOBS]; float kHz[PACKETBLOBS]; float lowpasskHz[PACKETBLOBS]; } adj_stereo; What I am attempting to do is bring lossless stereo coupling down to the lower quality levels in

Hi everyone, Recently I made an attempt at merging the tunings of GT3b1 into the official Xiph.org 1.0.1 libvorbis code. While 99% of the GT3b1 tunings are independent of 1.0.1, there is one particular value (_psy_noiseguards) which affects the whole quality range. I've chosen to use the 1.0.1 values since they changed since 1.0. Therefore, files encoded in GT3b1 mode (q 5 and above)

After pinpointing a ld switch problem in the ogg/src/Makefile file, I managed to get libogg and libvorbis to compile using mingw32. FLAC compiled flawless so the configure script in vorbis-tools detected FLAC and included support for it in oggenc. And when oggenc was compiling, I noticed it included the FLAC libraries so everything went smoothly. But the oggenc.exe made only recognises wav

logtail is a great program but it is incomplete. Currently it has no iead about log rolls which is normally done by renaming files from log to log.1 then log.2 etc... logtail should on seeing a different inode, try to determine if the log was just rolled as normal, and output the remainer of that rolled file, before outputing the other files down the chain to the current logfile. Of course

Hi, I've read the Vorbis stereo documentation on square polar mapping and currently reading the source code to understand it. But there are some things which I don't quite understand and hope I can get some guidance on. I understand the decoding/decoupling part as it is the same as the one described in the stereo docs: From mapping0.c: /* channel coupling */

Hello folks, I can't make R use the GNU-Readline-library. However, - I have run configure with --enable-readline and - configure *has found* the library. My Linux distribution is SuSe, July 1998. I'm using Kernel 2.0.25. I was told by Douglas Bates (r-devel), that this problem between R and (probably) SuSe was discussed before on this list. Can someone tell me how I can make R use
