Thank you for the reply,   I appreciate it very much.

I have the following responses:

sudo R CMD INSTALL ~/APX.X.X/Rserve_0.6-2.tar.gz

Explaining what 'does not work' means.

When I type this in.  It says that the package is not found.   Can you
guide me as to what I need to do here?


What version of gplots will work with version 2.15.2 from the archive at
http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/gplots/
