Dear Mark and Adrian,
I was under the impression that these errors were fixed in R 2.4.0; you
could try setting the Rcmdr option suppress.X11.warnings=TRUE and see
whether that helps (but first read the information on the option in
?Commander).
As Mark mentioned, I'm currently at the useR conference and don't have
access to a Linux system here, so I can't check directly.
I hope that this helps,
John
