Hi,
I installed graphviz from the directions given at:
http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/Rgraphviz.html
which is just to execute these two statements:
==============================================================
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("Rgraphviz")
==============================================================
However, I am not able to load the library due to the error below.
But it seems a strange error... why should this package be trying to
allocate 3.4Gb of memory?
I am running:
R: 2.12.2
Graphviz: 2.26.3
Thanks for any help.
Matt
Here is the R console output for the getting of the package and trying
to load the library:
This is the output to the R console:
==============================================================

BioC_mirror = http://bioconductor.org
Change using chooseBioCmirror().

Using R version 2.12.2, biocinstall version 2.7.7.
