Hi

I want to use R on a cluster, and up to updates, it was working fine.
Now it works on most nodes, but on several nodes I have a problem,
that R as well as Rscript just hangs - no error message. So the
following commands result in a hung R session, which I can not leave
vie Ctrl-c:

Rscript -e "4"
or any other command

R

where Rscript --version
works

I checked ldd Rscript, and the libraries there are all the same - but
I obviously cant check

ldd R

This works on some nodes, and on others it does not.

Do you have any ideas what might cause this behaviour?

The OS is OpenSuSe 64 bit, R 13.1 is installed from source

Any help appreciated where I can guide the admin to (as he has no
experience with R at all),

Cheers,

Rainer
