Dear R experts,
I installed R-1.7.1 on Linux (Red Hat 9.0) starting from R-1.7.1.tgz without a problem. Then I fired up R and tried things and found that help.start( ) does not work. I downloaded Sun Java j2re1.4.2, installed that and re-installed R-1.7.1 from scratch. I tried help.start( ) again and the browser (Mozilla 1.2.1) crashed.
I read about copying libjavaplugin_oji.so into mozilla/plugins and installed R-1.7.1 (again from scratch). Mozilla still crashed. Can you tell me how to make help.start( ) work in R-1.7.1?
It doesn't help much, but it works fine on my SuSE 8.2 box, using R-1.7.1 (patched) and Mozlla 1.2.1. I've also used Konqueror (the KDE browser/file manager) using help.start(browser="konqueror"). Have you tried that (or Galleon, or Opera, or ...)?
Cheers
