Hi Ingo / Karl / Graham, I have now set up a GNU/Linux system (Ubuntu 8.04), and tracked down the problem. There were several problems stemming from the GTK+ event loop not running / updating continuously, and multiple-threads problems.
A new version 0.9-0 should appear on CRAN soon (next few days hopefully). There are screenshots to prove it works... http://code.google.com/p/playwith/wiki/Screenshots Sorry for the inconvenience. -Felix On Mon, Jun 30, 2008 at 9:35 PM, Graham Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Received Mon 30 Jun 2008 8:58pm +1000 from Karl Ove Hufthammer: >> Ingo Michaelis: >> >> > I try to use the interactive plot package playwith on my machine (Ubuntu >> > 8.04 64 bit / Gnome) using R version 2.7.1.
