Yeah...you need to compile from source and use the

./configure --with-gnome

option to get it.  I tried that once some time ago. Like RGui.exe under
Windows, IIRC, it provides some basic menus for package installation,
etc.

It does not however provide any access to analytic/plotting functions.
More information is available in the R-admin manual.
