X11 not available

Hi,

I just installed R in a Linux box. Unfortunately, I don't have root access and
had to install it in my home directory.
The software runs fine, but I cannot make it print graphics to the screen. If I
type X11 I get: X11 is not available (though it is working for other software).
I noticed that it prints graphs to a default ps file.
Any suggestions about how to get around this?

Many thanks,

FG

perhaps you have compiled it without x11 support.  The reason could be
missing XFree86-devel.rpm or something similar.  Have you checked whad did
the configuration script say?

Just a suggestion
