Problems Installing Rmpi on openSUSE 11.1 x86_64

My guess is that you have successfully told R how to find LAM during
compile, but that your system needs to be configured so that R can
find LAM when it is running. I guess that

  R CMD ldd /home/francke/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.8/Rmpi/libs/Rmpi.so

lists something like 'libmpi.so.0 => not found' (I'm just guessing at
the missing library name; there may be several). What you need to do
is to tell R where to look, e.g., temporarily with

  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/lib64 R

and more permanently by ldconfig or the like.
