Hello, I''m inexperienced with linux, X11 and R. A font problem have surfaced. When I use pairs in John Fox''s car library e.g.: > pairs(cbind(prestige, income, education, women)) Error in text.default(x, y, txt, cex = cex, font = font) : X11 font at size 16 could not be loaded In addition: Warning message: freeing previous text buffer in GText > Evidently

Hi, I just did a fresh install of CentOS 5.5, as usual : base system, X Window system, GNOME, and then the apps I need. The MiscFixed fonts don't seem to be available in GNOME Terminal anymore. Has the package been renamed? Any idea where they went? It's my favourite font for the terminal. Cheers, Niki

Hi all, I have additional TTF fonts I purchased and added to CentOS 5.6. I used the commands chkfontpath and ttmkfdir to do that . These dont seem to be in CentOS 6 . How do I add fonts to openoffice for CentOS 6? Thanks, Jerry

I am trying to make wine run with a couple of windows applications and there is no way I can get normal fonts. All I get is little squares instead. I have set up a directory /home/username/.wine/fake_windows/Fonts that has quite a few .ttf files that I got from my Windows98 partition. I have also set up chkfontpath to the right path (please see attached files). Then what can be wrong? I

I have a situation where gnome console does not handle vt102 escape sequences properly and therefor need to employ xterm instead. When I run xterm from a gnome terminal window I am presented with an extremely small terminal window employing an almost unreadably small font. I have attempted to set the font size using xrdb and a custom .Xresources file. I can change the colour scheme. I can

Dear list, I would like to make a comment how to solve the X11 font problem under SuSE Linux (9.0) when you get the message: "X11 font at size 16 could not be loaded". After having modified /etc/X11/XF86config as root (see below) you have to run 'SuSEconfig' as root as well else nothing might be changed in the X-Server. After that no further messages should appear. HTH,

Hi guys, I am updating a package because of data format in data folder. So I just change an extension of a file to .txt ... nothing more.

Hi all, I'm having some troubles with the Quantreg package. I am using R version 2.10.0, and have downloaded the most recent version of Quantreg (4.44) and SparseM (0.83 - required package). However, when I try to run an analysis (e.g. fit1<-rq(y~x, tau=0.5)) I get an error message saying that the function "rq" could not be found. I get the same message when I try to search

Hi Stuart, I often use this small function standardize <- function(x) ( x - mean(x, na.rm=T) ) / sqrt(var(x, na.rm=T)) to standardize variables. You should be able to use this to do what you want by splitting the data frame into sections based on the factor level, using standardize() to create a new variable in each section, then paste the data frame back together. Something like: #

Brian Ripley pointed out that there is already an R function scale() that does the work of my standardize(). -Greg -----Original Message----- From: Warnes, Gregory R Sent: Friday, January 18, 2002 9:38 AM To: 'Stuart Leask' Cc: 'r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch' Subject: RE: z-scores for different factor levels Hi Stuart, I often use this small function standardize <-

I realise this isn't exactly an R query, but does anyone know what ports I need to open in order to get the install package function working? It's blocked by our University firewall. I have been asked for the following info and I don't know where to find it or how to get it. I guess my computer knows this info - it knows where it's trying to connect to - but I don't

(Many thanks to David Barron & Jonathan Baron for pointing me to 'recode' in the 'car' package). I think I've been told this before, but how do I search for a function/keyword in libraries I don't yet have installed? (ie. on the CRAN site I tried the search engines with "recode" etc., but didn't pick up the car package this way) Stuart Dr Stuart Leask

Hi list, This is driving me to distraction. I have installed the 3.0.14a RPMS on SLES8, and am following chapter 9 of the 'By Example' documentation, to migrate from an NT domain to a Samba domain backed by LDAP. I have followed the instructions up to the point where I enter: net rpc join -S pdc_it -U Administrator%password Unfortunately, this responds with: Creation of workstation

Hi List, We have a large (6500 desktops) network distributed over a few dozen sites. The clients are (almost) all Windows95 and WinXP. We currently use Netware as our network operating system, and are looking at the possibility of moving to (Samba on) Linux to provide file and print services. One of the nice things about Novell NDS is that you can specify printers that are available to

Dear All, I wonder if anyone can advise me as to whether there is a consensus as to how the effect size should be calculated from GLIM models in R for any specified significant main effect or interaction. In investigating the causes of variation in infection in wild animals, we have fitted 4-way GLIM models in R with negative binomial errors. These are then simplified using the STEP procedure,
