R Team, I was attempting to install Lindsey's rmutil.tgz and other non-CRAN packages using 'R INSTALL', for example 'R INSTALL rmutil.tgz' after downloading 'rmutil.tgz' from Lindsey's page (as linked from r-project.org page). Directly using the compressed file as 'R INSTALL rmutil.tgz' failed, though the shell help from 'R INSTALL --help'

The search at www.r-project.org mentioned a function "gauss.hermite{rmutil}". However, 'install.packages("rmutil")' produced, 'No package "rmutil" on CRAN.' How can I find the current status of "gauss.hermite" and "rmutil"? Thanks, Spencer Graves

I have some data which I am trying to fit with a negative binomial distribution. I have found the glm.nb function from MASS. I have reason to believe that the mean parameter mu depends on certain factors, and that the shape parameter theta depends on others. If, say, the factors are P and Q, it might be that mu ~ P:Q and theta ~ P (where mu ~ P:Q means that mu is a function of the pair (P,Q))

Dear r-helpers, I downloaded http://popgen.unimaas.nl/~jlindsey/rcode/rmutil.tar (it was originally .tgz, but got unzipped by my browser). Can anyone give me detailed instructions on installing this and Lindsey's other packages on R version 2.4.0 (2006-10-03)---(powerpc- apple-darwin8.7.0, locale: C)? _____________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy University of Virginia

-- R Help List -- I am looking for a bivariate normal cdf routine in R. I have some fortran routines for this, which appear to be based on 15-point quadrature. Any guidance/suggestions on making these in loadable R-functions would be appreciated. Thanks, Dan =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Daniel A.

Hello, I am interested in fitting a generalized nonlinear regression (gnlr) model with negative binomial errors. I have found Jim Lindsay's package that will do gnlr, but I have having trouble with the particular model I am interested in fitting. It is a threshhold model, where below a certain value of one of the parameters being fitted, the model changes. Here is a sample: Cones:

Hi All, I want to upload J K Lindsey's "repeated" in a LINUX OS.. I had tried the command.. [root@localhost Desktop] # R CMD INSTALL repeated.gz " WARNING: invalid package 'repeated' " *Installing to library '/usr/local/lib/R/library' ERROR: No packages

I hope this is enough information to determine the problem. Thanks in advance for any help.

I had a couple of problems getting R 0.90.0. In case anyone has similar problems, I though I would mention them. 1/ I can't use "ftp cvs.r-project.org" from either home or work. The ftp service does not seem to be available. Perhaps this is intended. I only discovered it because I thought the file I got through Netscape might be corrupted. (I don't understand why Netscape

Hello -- I am curious if lmer can be used to fit a multilevel factor model such as a two-parameter item response model. The one parameter model is straightforward. A two-factor model requires a set of factor loadings multiplying a single random effect. For example, a logit model for the ith subject responding correctly to the jth item (j=1,..,J) is logit[p(ij)] = a1*item1(i) + ... + aJ *

Hello- Tired of the crashes I was experiencing with r 1.2.1 on Windows ME, I downloaded the r-1.2.1.tgz under my Debian Linux box. I untared, unzipped and then I ./configure and make as specified i the FAQ. But something went wrong...I had version 0.90 per-installed, as it comes with the normal Debian distribution and now, whenever I run R, the old version is the one that executed. Can

Howdy. I feel like I am missing something really simply with regards to the way that Puppet works and I am wondering if someone can point me in the write direction. I have written a class that downloads, uncompresses, compiles, and installs Python from source. So far so good. The problem is that it only needs to do this once, when Python is not already in place (or some other custom

Dear all, I am sorry in advance because probably my question was already discussed. I have installed an R version R-1.3.1 on Linux RedHat 6.2. As I want to install R-1.5.0, I have first followed a suggestion of Peter Dalgaard (mail in FAQ) in order to keep the version R-1.3.1 by renaming /usr/local/lib/R and /usr/local/bin/R (/usr/local/lib/R-1.3.1 and /usr/local/bin/R-1.3.1 )and then set

R-help -- I built R-2.2.1 in my own directory on a sun (solaris). Now I would like the sysadmin to move the contents to /usr/local/lib and place the binary in /usr/local/bin. No problem. However, the RHOME variable defaults to the directory from which R was built so it is not usable by anyone but me or ROOT. I would like to avoid building this again if possible. Any ideas? Thanks, Dan

Hi, I downloaded the source code for the package zoo (zoo_1.2-2.tgz from CRAN). When I gunzip and untar the file I can't find the R / C / FORTRAN code for the library. In the R directory under zoo, the listing is for 3 files: zoo zoo.rdb zoo.rdx Is the code encoded in one of these files? I've had this problem with other packages too, trying to browse the source. Am I missing something

Dear all, I have a crash test cluster where i?ve tested the new version of GlusterFS (v3.7) before upgrading my HPC cluster in production. But? all my tests show me very very low performances. For my benches, as you can read below, I do some actions (untar, du, find, tar, rm) with linux kernel sources, dropping cache, each on distributed, replicated, distributed-replicated, single (single

I am fairly new to linux and wine as well. I was wanting to install another version of wine but i need to uninstall the first one i got. I know how to do this if it were an RPM but its not it was a tgz file that i had to build and install myself how would I uninstall this. Thanks Kristopher Powell
