Hi,
yesterday i had the surprise not to be able to load the package "ca" on R 2.7.0 saying that cannot find required package rgl although it was there. So today i've upgraded to 7.2.1. patched and i got the following error: > local({pkg <- select.list(sort(.packages(all.available = TRUE))) + if(nchar(pkg)) library(pkg, character.only=TRUE)}) Loading required package: rgl Error : cannot allocate vector of size 2.0 Gb Error: package 'rgl' could not be loaded I've "up-ed" the memory to max which is 4 Gb for my computer and tried again ... same result. I know how to install packages and load them .... or at least i thought so. Do you know what is wrong?? sysname release "Windows" "XP" version nodename "build 2600, Service Pack 2" machine "x86" sessionInfo() R version 2.7.1 Patched (2008-07-31 r46185) i386-pc-mingw32 locale: LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252;LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252;LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=English_United States.1252 attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] e1071_1.5-18 class_7.2-42 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] tools_2.7.1 Thanks for any advice, Monica _________________________________________________________________ [[elided Hotmail spam]] ______________________________________________ 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.
