Hi All, 

 

We're trying to get R with the standard gui loaded onto CentOS 4, and
under certain users R will not render certain graphics. When logged in
as root the graphics render, but under the restricted user they don't.
The graphics don't render with the error:

 

testdata <-
rbind(c(1,2,3,4,5,6),c(3,4,5,4,6,2),c(3,6,7,2,2,1),c(5,4,9,8,9,1))
> pairs(testdata)
Error in text.default(x, y, txt, cex = cex, font = font) : 
 X11 font -adobe-helvetica-%s-%s-*-*-%d-*-*-*-*-*-*-*, face 1 at size 16
could not be loaded

 

Has anyone come across this before?  I looked in the archive and
couldn't find anything.  Any system/install information you'd like to
see?

 

-    Jake
