Found a workaround:
The problem is not with R. It is with font path settings for X. The
FontPath in /etc/X11/xorg.cong is not pointing to the correct
directories. I changed the lines (following a lead from here:
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=268024):
# FontPath "/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc"
# FontPath "/usr/share/X11/fonts/cyrillic"
# FontPath "/usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
# FontPath "/usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
# FontPath "/usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1"
# FontPath "/usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi"
# FontPath "/usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi"
to these:
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi"
and it started working. However, a proper fix should be done in order to
set the font path correctly.
