Upgrade your version of R. You have not provided sufficient details, but if I had to guess, you are either running RCmdr or using other tcl/tk based widgets. If correct, the error message that you are seeing was fixed back in R 2.4.0: o The X11() device no longer produces (apparently spurious) 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)' warnings when run from Rcmdr.

You might want to find out how R was installed and suggest the he/she installs the latest version of R. If from a pre-compiled binary, the update will likely be 2.5.0 and if from source, be sure that they install using the latest R 2.5.0 Patched source tarball from: ftp://ftp.stat.math.ethz.ch/Software/R/ In addition, have them run, as 'root', update.packages() from with an R session started using: R --vanilla to update any installed packages that might be causing a conflict.

Thanks for the input, however, I am using R 2.4.0. I don't know how the SysAdmin installed or configured it though. I am not running Rcmdr, I am developing R GUI applications using Tcl/Tk package, for some weird reason, those messages comes and goes... Thanks Hao Marc Schwartz wrote:
