Dear Mr Bivand and all the authors,
Glad to recieve your letter, and it seems that you catched the very bug this time! First of all, there isn't any file named "graphics.Ex-rout" in direction    "tests/Examples/" but there are "graphics.Ex.R" and "graphics.Ex-Rout.fail" files there, the latter of which looks like a good crue of my problem. So I tared this file and sent it as an attached file of this letter, wishing it won't be rejected by your server. 

I also try demo(graphics) in a new R session and some errors occured as expected. The graphics demo can be displayed correctly until the third one. An mistake happened and braked down the command. The failing message is writed down below:( also some key words was translated into English by myself)
"Press 'Enter' for the next graphic :
font.main = 1)
error occurs in: title(main = "January Pie Sales", cex.main = 1.8, font.main = 1) :
        cannot load X11 font size 22 "

So it seems that there are still some problems with my package "X11", doesn't it?

All good luck!
                                                            
                                                              Yours sincerely,
                                                              An Chinese

Could Mandrake users please examine this thread of make check failures? 
(Mandrake Linux 10.1 - fails graphics, possibly missing one of 100dpi or 
75dpi font rpms)

The file seems to be empty, so the make check on graphics may have failed 
immediately.

            

      
      
      
    

        
I see from postings on R-help that Mandrake 10.1 users are advised to 
install both 'xorg-x11-100dpi-fonts' and 'xorg-x11-75dpi-fonts':

and:

Could you please say whether you only have one of these font files
installed now, and whether the problem is resolved by installing the
missing one?
