Eventually some kind person with lots of extra time on his/her hand will install R v2.8.0 on their machine, try to reproduce the problem, troubleshoot it, fix the bug, and provide you with a customized retroactive patched R v2.8.0 that you could install. While waiting for that to happen, you may want to try out R v2.12.2. /Henrik > > > *** Process received signal *** > Signal: Segmentation fault (11) > Signal code: Address not mapped (1) > Failing at address: 0x231e18f22 > [ 0] /lib64/libc.so.6 [0x3c84a300a0] > [ 1] /lib64/libc.so.6(strlen+0x10) [0x3c84a76090] > [ 2] /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6 [0x3c8765d101] > [ 3] /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6(_XlcCreateLC+0x46) [0x3c8765e5d6] > [ 4] /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6(_XlcUtf8Loader+0x10) [0x3c8767ebe0] > [ 5] /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6(_XOpenLC+0x104) [0x3c87665674] > [ 6] /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6(_XlcCurrentLC+0x8) [0x3c87665768] > [ 7] /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6(XSupportsLocale+0x9) [0x3c87665b59] > [ 8] /usr/lib64/R/modules//R_X11.so(X11_Open+0x51) [0x2aaab8a32581] > [ 9] /usr/lib64/R/modules//R_X11.so(X11DeviceDriver+0x19a) [0x2aaab8a336aa] > [10] /usr/lib64/R/modules//R_X11.so [0x2aaab8a33c30] > [11] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so [0x3659cff75e] > [12] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_eval+0x427) [0x3659ccc2d7] > [13] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so [0x3659ccd6a2] > [14] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_eval+0x427) [0x3659ccc2d7] > [15] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_applyClosure+0x291) [0x3659ccfa41] > [16] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_eval+0x2fb) [0x3659ccc1ab] > [17] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(GEcurrentDevice+0x158) [0x3659c95a88] > [18] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so [0x3659d25c99] > [19] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so [0x3659cff75e] > [20] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_eval+0x427) [0x3659ccc2d7] > [21] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so [0x3659ccd6a2] > [22] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_eval+0x427) [0x3659ccc2d7] > [23] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_applyClosure+0x291) [0x3659ccfa41] > [24] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_eval+0x2fb) [0x3659ccc1ab] > [25] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so [0x3659ccd6a2] > [26] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_eval+0x427) [0x3659ccc2d7] > [27] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_applyClosure+0x291) [0x3659ccfa41] > [28] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so(Rf_usemethod+0x3fa) [0x3659d019da] > [29] /usr/lib64/R/lib/libR.so [0x3659d0203d] > *** End of error message *** > > Process R segmentation fault at Thu Mar 17 09:33:59 2011 > > -- > View this message in context: > http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Segmentation-fault-when-using-plot-function-tp3384603p3384603.html > Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org 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. > ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org 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.
