Hi

I am having problems installing Rmpi on a 64 bit system running SuSE
(version not known to me at the moment).

R is compiled from source in my home directory, and everything works fine.

I do the following:

#Make sure that R-12.2.0 is used

export PATH=/home/rkrug/R/R/R-2.12.0/bin/:$PATH

# load module for openmpi-1.4.2

module load  openmpi-1.4.2

# Check that it is loaded

mpirun --version

mpirun (Open MPI) 1.4.2r22761-ct8.2.1c-b11a-r31

Report bugs to http://www.open-mpi.org/community/help/

# OK - fine

# Try to install Rmpi

R  CMD INSTALL --configure.args="--with-mpi=/usr/src/openmpi-1.4.2"

So - what is happening here? As I understand it, it is compiling, but
can not be loaded, as "undefined symbol".

Could anyone please shed some light on this issue, as I am stuck.

Thanks,

Rainer
