[R] Re: Problems with rgl package

[apjaworski@mmm.com]

I also downloaded the rgl package (after reading recent Uwe Ligges' post)
and installed in on my Win2k Pro sp2 machine.  It seems to work with no
problems.  I ran most of the examples, including the hist3d one, and all of
them worked fine.

A couple of thoughts.  I have administrative priviliges on my machine.
Could this possible make a difference.  The rgl library uses OpenGL.  Is it
a standard install on all Win2k systems?

Cheers,

Andy

PS   I am running standard 1.4.1 version of R installed from precompiled
binaries.

I don't have access to Win2K to test on, but I don't see that error on
Win95, Win98, or NT4.  So it could be a Win2K incompatibility, or it
could be a problem with your installation.

The current version (from "library(help=rgl)") is 0.5.6.  (The
Help|About window incorrectly reports itself as 0.5.5).

Can you get any functions at all to work, i.e. is this just a problem
with hist3d?
