[R] SOLVED: Anyone managed to run JGR on amd64 Linux? SegFault

[Oleg Sklyar]

Hi, my post about failing JGR on amd64 solved and here is how I got it 
running, hopefully it helps others.

Suppose your JDK (and you need JDK, not only JRE) is in 
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun (thus JRE in 
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre). Set JAVA_HOME to point there to JDK. 
Run R CMD javareconf (thanks Prof. Ripley). RE-install rJava, install 
JGR. Start JGR - worked for me with sun-java binary deb of Ubuntu Edgy 
and R2.4.0alpha from source.

Best,
Oleg
