similar to: strange slowness of plot

I am about to get a new machine at work - an IBM Intellistation with the Xeon 2.8 GB processor. It will run Windows 2000. I would like to install the proper ATLAS dll for this machine, but I am not sure if Xeon is P4? Does anybody have any experience with Xeon?

I just r-sync'ed the r-devel version of R-1.7.0 (2003-03-11), compiled it under RH-8.0 and ran make check. The reg-tests-2 fails at the very end with the message stating that "object cement was not found". It looks like this piece of the regression test is new to version 1.7. The the piece of code generating the error is: if(require(MASS)) { teststep <- function(formula,

A couple of days ago a few messages indicated that something changed in the basic plot routine that made plot(*, type='l') slow for large data sets. Some people even reported crashes for very large data sets. As far as I remember, this was not reported as a formal bug. I am still not sure if this is a bug, so I report my findings here. First of all, I think I see a slowdown of the plot

I am not sure if this is already known. I checked BUGS and found some references to similar behavior when R_HOME is set? Here is what I get: (1) Fresh build of 1.4.1 under Linux/RH-7.2. All tests pass. > R CMD check ctest * checking for working latex ... OK * using log directory `/home/andyj/stat/R-1.4.1/library/ctest.Rcheck' Installing *source* package `ctest'

Hi, I am having the following problem and I am not sure if this is bug or I am missing something obvious. I have a bunch of R functions that automatically process large data sets. The processing produces several numerical summaries and several graphs which are subsequently put in reports. I usually do my processing in R BATCH mode on a Win2000 machine. All the graphical functions in my package

Hi, I usually compile R-devel tarball every few days (just to check if I can do it and check for any compile errors). As of two days ago, I am receiving the following error: ... gcc -O3 -I. -DWIN32 -D_X86_ -c xdr_mem.c -o xdr_mem.o ar crs libxdr.a xdr.o xdr_float.o xdr_stdio.o xdr_mem.o make: *** ../extra/trio: No such file or directory.

Hi, I have been compiling R from source code with regularity (both R-patched and R-devel) for several months now. About two/three weeks ago I noticed a compilation error in R-devel (see below). I thought that the error will go away in "due course" so I did not investigate it further. Then I left on vacation. I just downloaded both versions of R sources (i.e., 2.2.0 patched and

Hello there, I have a habit of compiling R-patched and R-devel every few days. Recently, I noticed the following problem: I downloaded both versions with Revision: 40421, Last Changed Date: 2007-01-09. R-patched compiles with no problem. R-devel compiles fine but when it starts to make PDF documentation it generates the following (tail of the "make distribution" output): ! pdfTeX

I have installed a new version of redhat 9 with samba and winbindd. Uptill configuring winbindd, it was doing all that I was wanting. I then went onto configure and start winbind. I have inserted the options into the global part of the samba config when I do a wbinfo -u I get 0xc0000022 but when do a wbinfo -t fot the secret, I get the secret is good. Any help with this would be muchly

Is there any way to process the "vignette" documantation files? I have been looking at the bioconductor packages and most of them have *.Rnw files in doc directories. They look like regular TeX but have sections showing R code that seem to choke TeX.

I think that there is a bug in the as.POSIXct function on Windows. Here is what I get on Win2000, Pentium III machine in R 1.8.1. > dd1 <- ISOdatetime(2003, 10, 26, 0, 59, 59) > dd2 <- ISOdatetime(2003, 10, 26, 1, 0, 0) > dd2 - dd1 Time difference of 1.000278 hours Now, the 26th of October was the day that change to the standard time occurred, so I suspect that this has

Hi, I have a problem of estimating a mixture of two normal distributions. I need to find the starting points automatically, since this is a part of a larger piece of image processing code. I found the mix2normal1 function in VGAM package that mentions a method of finding starting values for mu1 and mu2 but refers the reader to a book by Everitt and Hand. Unfortunately, I do not have an easy

Hello all, I have a very simple set of data and I would like to analyze them with probit analysis. The data are: X Event Trial 100 8 8 75 8 8 50 6 8 25 4 8 10 2 8 0 0 8 I want to estimate the value of X that will give a 95% hit rate (Event/Trial) and the corresponding 95% CI. Anyone can offer some help? Thanks!! -

I just installed R-1.4.0 on my Win2k machine from SetupR.exe. Everything seems to be fine with the base and recommended packages. However, when I install the lattice and grid packages they do not seem to work. Everything I try results in something like this: Instruction 0x00543f06 refernced memory 0x00000000. The memory cannot be "read". and I am getting kicked out of R. Has

While it is amazing that Sourcesafe runs under Wine, its performance leaves a lot to be desired. I am using Sourcesafe with Wine (my setup is documented at http://www.kegel.com/linux/vss-howto.html ). The Wine I'm using is from CVS as of last week. My workstation is a dual Pentium Xeon 1400MHz from Dell running 2.4.10. (That's a Pentium 4 Xeon using RDRAM, so it's probably about

Hi, I have the following question about creating data frames. I want to create a data frame with 2 components: a vector and a matrix. Let me use a simple example: y <- rnorm(10) x <- matrix(rnorm(150), nrow=10) Now if I do dd <- data.frame(x=x, y=y) I get a data frame with 16 colums, but if, according to the documentation, I do dd <- data.frame(x=I(x), y=y) then str(dd)

Hi, I just installed the odesolve package and ran the check command on it. It failed trying to execute library(gnlm). Sure enough, there is no gnlm library on my system and I could not find it on the CRAN archive either. Am I missing anything obvious or is gnlm some private library that somehow found its way into the example section of odesolve? Thanks in advance, Andy

Hi, I am not sure if this is a bug, so I am posting it here. I also searched the FAQ file for the readline string and did not find anything about the behavior below. I just successfully rsync'ed, compiled and tested R-1.4.0 on my RH 7.2 Linux machine. I encountered one problem though. When running ./configure I noticed that I was getting errors from the readline library. Although

I'm setting up a new AAH 1.0 box to replace my AAH 0.6 box. Though on the new box, I've installed a generic ebay X100P. I don't have my livevoip or voicepulse accounts set up yet on the new box (can both boxes be registered at the same time?). I've set up one IP phone (SPA841) with the new box. I have my SBC POTS line plugged into the fxo card. I set up everything in AMP.
