The RPM for Fedora Core 2 seems to work just fine on Core 3. (The graphics window got smaller, but I'm sure there is a setting for that.)
That would be good news. I really don't know how the graphics window became so big at some stage. (MacOS X is just cute here: tiny, sharp, fast graphics window.)
I have the opposite problem, a 1680x1050 display.
Has the options()printcmd reappeared, so that dev.print() works without changing default options?
I can't imagine how this would change. This is the same "old" RPM, not a new one. The option is there, and I don't think it ever disappeared. I can't test it. This is my laptop, which is not set up to print anything.
My mistake. The default print command is determined at configure time. But the RedHat RPMS are built in a sandbox that has only the minimal configuration needed to build R. This doesn't include the lpr package so the default print command is null. I will fix this in the next RPM release, but right now I am upgrading to FC3.
An RPM for Fedora Core 3 should be on a CRAN mirror near you by the weekend. This fixes the printcmd bug. The X11() window is the right size for me, but it doesn't have a title bar, which is a nuisance. Martyn
