I think other messages in this thread may have helped you to get X11 
going.  If not, and the latest version doesn't work for you, please ask 
again.

If you get the very latest version 0.95.1415 of rgl from R-forge, it 
will continue on after this, using the "NULL" device.  This can't 
display from within R, but can still output WebGL code for display on a 
web page, so it may be useful for some systems.  (It can sort of display 
in RStudio; you need to load the rglwidget package, and call rglwidget() 
each time you want to see output.  This behaviour is still in flux.)
