Hello, To obtain the latest R packages, add an entry like:
deb http://my.favorite.cran.mirror/bin/linux/ubuntu feisty/ in your /etc/apt/sources.list file :: * First open a terminal (Applications - Accessories - terminal). * Then open /etc/apt/sources.list with root privileges: type in the terminal gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list You will need to give your user password (this assumes you are a user with root privileges) and then the file will load in the editor "gedit". Save the file and exit gedit To install the complete R system, use sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install r-base Users who need to compile packages should also install the r-base-dev package: sudo apt-get install r-base-dev After that, you start R from the terminal by typing (capital! Linux is case sensitive!) R Now, the terminal prompt changes into the R prompt >. If you now type demo(graphics) and the graphics demo runs as expected, you are pretty much sure that your installation is OK. After this procedure, your R installation will eventually be updated automatically through Ubuntu's update manager.
