Hi Frank,
Thanks for the suggestion.  It looks like that is an excellent way to
install JAGS.  I've also been successful with installing JAGS, but cannot
get the rjags package to install, so I can call JAGS from R.  Any
suggestions there?  Thanks.

After getting jags installed, I did not encounter problems running just install.packages('rjags'). You might provide some details to the group and someone may spot the problem.

Hi,
Here is a step-by-step guide to exactly how I've installed R in Ubuntu:
http://www.nabble.com/installing-R-on-Ubuntu-td10025949.html#a21894865

Regarding rjags, here is what happened:

This webpage
(http://yusung.blogspot.com/2009/01/install-jags-and-rjags-in-fedora.html)
recommends logging into R as sudo R, and then typing:

install.packages("rjags",
configure.args="--with-jags-include=/usr/local/include/JAGS
--with-jags-lib=/usr/local/lib/JAGS
--with-jags-modules=/usr/local/lib/JAGS/modules")

...but I get...

Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : unable to load shared library
'/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/rjags/libs/rjags.so':

...which is virtually identical to this thread
(http://www.nabble.com/unable-to-install-rjags-on-64-bit-Debian-Linux-(etch)-td20404210.html#a20404210)
about a 64-bit install.  Although my computer has dual AMD64's, I'm sure
it's a 32-bit system.  I have removed rjags with
remove.packages("rjags"). Does anybody know how to install rjags in Ubuntu Linux (I'm specifying
it,
because I am very new and don't know what I'm doing yet)?  Thanks.
