Dear, "Xenoppix-x86-64(Xen3.0.2+KNOPPIX-x86_64-5.0.1) CD size" is released. http://unit.aist.go.jp/itri/knoppix/xen/index-en.html Xenoppix-x86-64 exploits latest CPU (Intel Core2 Duo and AMD Athlon64). * Xenoppix-x86-64 boots both X86 and X86_64 linux kernel on HVM of Xen. * Xenoppix-x86-64 looks like KNOPPIX but all packages are replaced for X86_64. * Xenoppix-x86-64 also

Dear All, I am trying to install R using debian's apt-get system. When I do 'apt-get install r-base', it appears to install everything correctly. However, when I start up R I get the error message: " knoppix at Geron007:/knoppix$ R cannot find system RenvironError in options(...) : invalid editor parameter R : Copyright 2003, The R Development Core Team Version 1.7.1

Installing Damn Small Linux and R Following my experiences with Knoppix (described in another mail) I did similar test on Damn Small Linux (dsl -http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/ ). DSL was interesting, because it is the smallest yet fully functional version of Linux, hence more suited to older and smaller computers than Knoppix. Importantly, it uses lightweight windowing system (no KDE or GNOME) so

I appear to have lost the whole of my home directory on my centos server (which includes all my mail saved from the last 7 years). Although I have recent backups of most data I would like to copy important files from /etc, and, if possible, /var/logs so that I can try to find out what went wrong. However, knoppix refuses to let me write to either my usb hdd or usb pendrive. Does anyone know how

Hi, Is it possible to install R in a linux box (Debian) without being a root. I know I can compile the R source code, but there is no F77 compiler on the box.

To all: I currently download the R binaries for Redhat 7.x Linux. There is considerable turmoil in the vendors of Linux. Redhat apparently is changing it's business model to paid versions. This might motivate my department to use a different vendor of Linux. Is there anything predictable about which vendors/versions of Linux will have R binaries in the future? Thanks, Nathan PS I

Just in case anyone cares or is hitting the same problem: to install current mgcv (1.0-5) on 1.9.0 on Knoppix/Debian unstable I had to: # cd /usr/lib # ln -s /usr/lib/atlas/libblas.so.3 libblas-3.so # ln -s /usr/lib/atlas/liblapack.so.3 liblapack-3.so Otherwise compilation couldn't find -lblas-3 or -llapack-3 (I could have gotten away with the links in /usr/lib/atlas instead of /usr/lib,

I'm probably missing something very simple.

Dear List, After obtaining a second-hand PC and because XP costs too much, I installed Xandros 3.0 (based on Debian) but pretty easy to use if migrating from WinXP. Does anyone know how to install R on this OS? Thank you for your time, Tom Volscho ************************************ Thomas W.

Golly, anyone who read Plato's Dialogues would realize that the Socratic method involves patiently leading the questioner stepwise through the solution, not simply writing RTFMeno. Jim

Hi. I've recently picked up a 256MB compact flash card and CF->IDE adapter. I'm wanting to put a smaller version of knoppix on here. I came across miniknoppix here: http://www.inittab.org and decided to have a play around with that. So far I have opened up the ISO image and copied all the files out. I have put a boot sector onto the CF by putting the CF into the IDER adpater then

Hello list, A short time ago, I found http://johnhaller.com/jh/useful_stuff/portable_apps_suite/, which contains basically a complete set of office tools that can be run *entirely* from a USB key. The concept is: - find a Windows PC - put in your USB key - run OpenOffice, Firefox, Gaim, Nvu, Thunderbird, ... directly from your USB key, with no app installation required - save your files wherever

Dear all, I am trying to install the R-2.0.0-1mdk.i586.rpm <http://cran.planetmirror.com/bin/linux/mandrake/10.0/R-2.0.0-1mdk.i586.rpm> file on mandrake 10.1. Since the file is, originally, meant for Mandrake 10.0, it is not surprising me that the installation does not work.

[ I hope this is not considered off-topic for the list: A new Quantian release was just announced, and it contains even more R. As before, we have R (now 2.2.1), ESS, Ggobi, Rpy, several BioInfo tools -- but now we also have RSPerl, JGR, rJava and more. A full sync to CRAN and BioC as of Feb 25, 2006 now yields dim(installed.packages())[1] of 877. Feedback welcome, but
