TX,

I'm not sure how to tell what portions are installed, exactly, but you 
can test to see whether PEAR itself is installed simply by using

require 'PEAR.php';

If it complains, then it can't find it and it's probably not installed. 
 You can download the PEAR packages yourself, though, drop them into a 
directory in your site (or outside the root of your site), and use 
ini_set() to set your include_path to the directory where your PEAR 
classes reside.  Then you can use PEAR without having to install it.
