@ Frede: Thanks! Although scale with bb still give me the "loading" text in figure region, your method works like a charm for the second one, I change M-n P to pdflatex in your way, now it works fine. Thanks a lot! Btw: Do you know how to view the pdf by some key-binding, after I hit M-n P in sweave. I know in Tex mode, I can use C-c C-c, or C-c C-v to do that. @Stephen and Richard: Thanks a lot for those nice suggestions.
