Assuming (!) that you're running the CRAN version on Mac OSX... Do you also have trouble if you start R in a terminal? That would at least give you a workaround. Is the problem still present in recent test builds out of http://R.research.att.com/ ?? I suspect there aren't all that many PPC Macs around running R, so stuff may go largely untested, especially in the interactive use. Simon (Urbanek) might have a handle on this already, but if you're the only one with the problem, it could be useful to get you to attach to the running R with GDB (some assembly required) and figure out were it is getting stuck, e.g.: Peter-Dalgaards-MacBook-Air:trunk pd$ ps auxww | grep R ... pd 2200 0.6 1.1 2797972 45248 ??
