There are many more things available than just 'nls'. An overview
is available at "www.r-project.org" -> CRAN (select your favorite
mirror) -> "Task Views" (on the left, third line under CRAN) ->
"Optimization Optimization and Mathematical Programming".
For a possibly more direct route, you can try the following:
library(RSiteSearch)
GN <- RSiteSearch.function("Gauss-Newton")
HTML(GN)
This identified for me 19 different help pages in 11 different
packages containing the term "Gauss-Newton".
GN. <- RSiteSearch.function("Gauss Newton")
GN2 <- GN|GN.
HTML(GN2)
This identified 27 help pages in 15 different packages containing
both "Gauss" and "Newton".
NR <- RSiteSearch.function("Newton Raphson")
NR. <- GN2|NR
HTML(NR.)
This identified 138 help pages in 61 different packages, sorting
them first by the package with the most matches.
Hope this helps.

Hi,I am a newbie to R. I wrote a simple Gauss-newton method in least
square
minimization problems, but it looks not working well. Is there any
Gauss-newton library/function in R?
Try
??leastsquares
and
?nls
