Hi Rolf,
Two possible solutions:
* DISPLAY=0.0.0.0:0 R - and then X11() should work without having to use
xterm
* install.packages("CarbonEL"); library(CarbonEL); quartz()
It is clear that life is determined to frustrate me. I had a look at CRAN
just now and could find no sign of a package called "CarbonEL". The list
jumps from "car" to "cat" --- no "Carbon" of any flavour. What gives?
I think the Mac page on CRAN points to something obsolete. From the R
GUI, CarbonEL is visible. You can also find the source on SourceForge
using Google.
However, it didn't work for me: I still get the "interactivity reduced"
message, and when I try to plot something, just an error
"CGGSStackRestore: gstack underflow."
I get those messages too, but the plot actually works for me. Does the quartz window open for you? Can you interact with it? (move it, change the size etc).
(Moved from R-help.) I took a closer look: I actually did get the window (hidden under my terminal window), and interactivity worked partially: I could use identify, for example. But when I clicked on the red close button on the graphics window, it kicked me right out of R: > library(CarbonEL) > plot(1:10,1:10) > quartz() Warning message: quartz() device interactivity reduced without an event loop manager in: quartz() > plot(1:10,1:10) CGGStackRestore: gstack underflow. > identify(1:10,1:10) [Worked fine, then I clicked on the red button...] *** caught segfault *** address 0xff020000, cause 'memory not mapped' Traceback: 1: identify.default(1:10, 1:10) 2: identify(1:10, 1:10) Possible actions: 1: abort (with core dump, if enabled) 2: normal R exit 3: exit R without saving workspace 4: exit R saving workspace Selection: Duncan Murdoch
