I am trying to do a ks.test in R 2.6.2 (running on Mac OS X 10.4.11).  
In the help guides it specifies that the y variable can be a  
character string for the type of distribution I want. I am doing this  
on the residuals of a regression model, but I continue to get an  
error. This is some of the code I have tried:

 > ks.test(res,"Norm")
Error in get(y, mode = "function") :
   variable "Norm" of mode "function" was not found
 > ks.test(res,"norm")
Error in get(y, mode = "function") :
   variable "norm" of mode "function" was not found
 > ks.test(res,"normal")
Error in get(y, mode = "function") :
   variable "normal" of mode "function" was not found

In this example, res is an object for the residuals of the  
regression. I have seen the following work on another system: ks.test 
(res,"norm"), but for some reason it won't work on mine. Any ideas on  
what I need to fix to get this to work?

Thanks,
