Breakpoints for multiple variables using Segmented
Hi all,
I am using the package ?Segmented? to estimate logistic regression models
with unknown breakpoints (see Muggeo 2003 Statistics in Medicine
22:3055-3071). In the documentation it suggests that it might be possible to
include several variables with breakpoints in the same model: ?Z = a vector
or a matrix meaning the (continuous) explanatory variable(s) having
segmented relationships with

Unable to mount root fs
Hey all,
I'am able to use pxelinux to successfully boot a particular kernel and
image on various IBM PC's ex. 6287-41U and 6591-34U. However, using the same
setup (ie. dhcp, tftp, pxelinux.0, pxelinux.cfg, networkcard, bootrom,
ram memory) on an IBM 6282-73U my kernel and image decompress fine but I'am
getting a...

Plotting with direction of axes reversed.
Over the years there have been inquiries to these lists as to how to
produce plots with the direction(s) of axes reversed. In response to
some of these inquiries, I have provided a function call ``rplot''
which automated the procedure for such axis reversal.
Recently Herberto Ghezzo of McGill University pointed out to me that
there was a bug in my code. I have now fixed this bug (and a

ordisymbol - changing symbols used in plotting factor levels
Hello,
I'm trying plot points in an NMDS according to a factor with two levels:
fig<-ordiplot(canod.sol,
type="none",cex.axis=0.9,cex.lab=0.1,pty="m",tck=-0.01)
ordisymbol(fig, y = hab, factor = "habitat", rainbow = T,col = env,
legend = F)
This gets me part of the way - It produces a plot with blue triangles
for the first factor level and red circles

ramdisk_size
Hey All,
I'am using pxelinux to try and boot a 200meg uncompressed (approx 50
compressed) ramdisk onto a machine with 512meg of ram. It looks as though
I'am running out of memory (attempt to access beyond end of device error).
Is there a limit on what we put for ramdisk_size? Or Is there other
limitations?
thanks

behaviour of BIC and AICc code
Dear R-helpers
I have generated a suite of GLMs. To select the best model for each set, I am using the
meta-analysis approach of de Luna and Skouras (Scand J Statist 30:113-128). Simply
put, I am calculating AIC, AICc, BIC, etc., and then using whichever criterion
minimizes APE (Accumulated Prediction Error from cross-validations on all model sets)
to select models.
My problem arises where I

password change using XP
I see on the list that it is possible to change the samba password using
ctrl-alt-del in windows. It looks to me that there are two senarios where
this can take place.
1) when windows box and samba server is a domain member or PDC
2) and/or encrytion is turned off on the windows box and possibly no
domain membership at all.
This what I have been trying to do.
No domains at all. Where XP has

A log on Bayesian statistics, stochastic cost frontier, montecarl o markov chains, bayesian P-values
Dear friends,
Over the past weeks, I have been asking a lot of questions about how to
use R in Bayesian analysis. I am brand new to R, but I am very pleased with
it. I started with winbugs but I found winbugs to be a limited software, not
bad but has several limitations. By contrast, R allows the analyst to tackle
any problem with a huge set of tools for any kind of analysis. I love R. In

to findout maximized log likelihoods by using rlarg.fit (for several r order statistics)
Dear R helpers,
I need to find out maximized log likelihoods,
parameters estimates and standard errors (in
parentheses) of r largest-order statistics model, with
different values of r by using the function rlarg.fit.
I want to specify required number of order statistics
to the model. I attached my data file with this

identify(...plot=F) (PR#1157)
If I execute, e.g.
> x <- round(runif(20,0,1),2)
> y <- round(runif(20,0,1),2)
> plot(x,y,xlim=c(0,1),ylim=c(0,1))
> identify(x,y,n=1,plot=F)
then I get the index of the identified point printed in the command
window, and ***initially*** the index is NOT displayed in the
graphics window (which is the behaviour I had hoped and expected
to obtain by setting ``plot=F'').

PR#1132.
Just now I again had occasion to want nested describe lists in a
documentation file. I found that the bug which I reported on 18
October, 2001 still persists. I checked on the bug report at the R
web page, and found that the notes say ``Not a problem in R 1.4.0
(2001-12-08)''.
Well, it's still a problem for me --- using R 1.4.1.

tm: custom reader for readPlain
Hello:
I have a series of newspaper articles from a Canadian newspaper database (Canadian Newsstand) that look just like below.
I've read through this vignette (http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/tm/vignettes/extensions.pdf) about creating a custom reader to extract meta-data, but I can't understand how to apply this in the context of a text document, rather than in the tabular format

Updating a linear model
My google search for Plackett's Algorithm didn't return too much except that
Plackett's algorithm appears to be useful in Control Theory - it is
elaborated as "Plackett's algorithm for on-line recursive least squares
