hi, this is what i get, the error seems to point out to something about 
the X11 font installation in my mac but i'm pretty lost about this, so 
any hint will be highly appreciated:

library(ShortRead)
q <- qa(system.file("unitTests", "cases", package="ShortRead"), 
pattern="solexa.fastq", type="fastq")

rptReads <- report(q)
Error in grid.Call("L_textBounds", as.graphicsAnnot(x$label), x$x, x$y,  :
   could not find any X11 fonts
Check that the Font Path is correct.
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In jpeg(file.path(imgDir, jpegFile), ...) :
   locale not supported by Xlib: some X ops will operate in C locale
2: In jpeg(file.path(imgDir, jpegFile), ...) :
   X cannot set locale modifiers
