Hi Steve,
Many thanks.

I added :deb http://cran.at.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu lucid/ in my
source.list and then tried sudo apt-get update. The last lines of the result
says:
Reading package lists... Done
W: GPG error: http://cran.at.r-project.org lucid/ Release: The following
signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available:
NO_PUBKEY 51716619E084DAB9

I am in south africa. I looked at the cran mirrors, there is no south
africa. I chose Australia.
Thanks for more help.
Regards
Ogbos
