1) Please follow the posting guide: a later version of R will solve this.
2) Please read ?png in the version you have: it describes how you need
write access on a running X server, and how to use Xvfb to get this if
neccessary.

Hi All,
I am running R 2.6.0 on an Ubuntu 8.04 with Rserve on a machine.
The current version is 2.8.1.
I send R commands from a Windows computer to the R machine and a few
commands require the creation of plots on png devices.
I often get the following error:
Error in X11(paste("png::", filename, sep = ""), width, height, pointsize, :
unable to start device PNG
I've solved this error at times by restarting Rserve. But it seems to
crop up frequently. I've installed the libpng libraries on Ubuntu but
to no avail.
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
