Any chance you are running R on a remote server using an ssh session? If that is the case, you may have an ssh/X11 config issue that prevents using tcl/tk from such a session. Rerun the configure script for R and verify that tcl/tk support is listed in the summary. >> Also, note that I have some warning messages on starting up R, not sure >> what they mean or if they are pertinent. > > Those are coming from a Bioconductor package: again you must be using > development versions with R-devel and those are not stable (last time I > looked even Biobase would not install, and the packages change > daily). BioC devel tracks R-devel, but not on a daily basis -- because R changes daily. The recent issues with Biobase are a result of changes to R and have already been fixed. > If you have all those packages in your startup, please don't -- there will > be a considerable performance hit so only load them when you need > them. Presumably, that's why they are there in the first place. The warning messages are a problem and suggest some needed improvements to the methods packages. These are being worked on. + seth -- Seth Falcon | Computational Biology | Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center BioC: http://bioconductor.org/ Blog: http://userprimary.net/user/ ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
