hi everybody,
today I decided (unwisely, it appears) to install 2.7.0
under MacOS 10.4.7. now, when I run R from the terminal
command line and do something like
plot(1:10)
a X11 graphic window pops up, the 10 points are drawn on an
otherwise blank canvas (no axes, no labels, no ticks etc),
CPU time goes to 100% and stays there and R does not come
back to the prompt ("hangs"). I tried to `ktrace' this but
this produced a one Gig logfile in a few seconds from which
a learned nothing ...
a quick search of the archive did not yield a hit. so
please: what's going on here?
thanks a lot for this "real time" response.
Ancient system? As a very first step for your own good I'd recommend
well, no. actually I _have_ 10.4.11 installed (I somehow was sure
it's 10.4.7,
still. that's probably alzheimer casting his shadow :-)).
updating your system which is way out of date (the current version
Tiger is 10.4.11). Then if the issue persists, please report your
full
sessionInfo() and machine used. The above works without problems on
both 10.5.2 and 10.4.11 (Mac Pro and iMac).
10.5.2 is no option for me since I need a working fullscreen X11 mode.
I now checked it again both on a dual 2Ghz G5 PPC and a 1.5 GHz
power book PPC G4,
both running
10.4.11: same problem. actually, R hangs only when really plotting. so
I can first open the device with X11() and get back to the R prompt.
only
when executing the `plot(1:10)' R apparently hangs and everything is
as described
in my first mail.
here comes the session info:
R version 2.7.0 (2008-04-22)
powerpc-apple-darwin8.10.1
Hmm - I have tried even the PowerPC version now and it works without
problems for me.
Are you using Apple's X11 or something else? Also do you get the error
in the "regular" (non-root) mode?
Thanks,
Simon
