You have lost me on that one! I can't stand emacs - I am strictly vim but 
usually use Kile for editing my LaTeX documents. I use KDE 3.4.1 as my main 
desktop.

I am going to Japan on 24 June - I should just be able to bump it before I 
leave ;) 2.1.0 is working very well here which is why I thought it should be 
pushed to stable. I have found png to be the best device to use, may be ps 
and convert to eps? I need colour in my graphs and the mathematical 
typesetting is nice to have.

GCC 4.* is working really well on amd64 too. Once I have a little more time I 
might try and get a little more involved with R. Got to see if I can get it 
playing nice though... I do most of my work on amd64 machines, but still have 
several x86 boxes around too.

If I get all this working nicely I was going to write a little doc up once I 
get back about using R for producing graphs to be used in publication/posters 
(assuming I get it all working). Back to data analysis now though - these 
papers need finishing for tomorrow...
