[R] rJava installation under linux: configuration failed

[Stefan Grosse]

Which java have you installed? ( java -version )

You need a Sun Java and better is a 1.5 series Java, JGR seems to have
some problem with the new 1.6 series. And you need the JDK, not the JRE.

You can google how to do those installations on suse linux.
