Hi, What commands did you try ? What worked and what didn't ? Which site did you refer ? Please read the posting guidelines here: http://www.r-project.org/posting-guide.html In the Ubuntu command line, try: sudo aptitude install r-base And for a list of R packages that you can install from the Ubuntu repositories: aptitude search r- | grep [^A-Za-z0-9] r- Install them like this: sudo aptitude install r-cran-package-name HTH, Senthil -/ "You see, but you do not observe.
