That unfortunately doesn't help me, because I am using events: setGraphicsEventHandlers(prompt="Click and drag to zoom, hit q to quit",Īnd those aren't supported on any other device. Further, for a long time most X11 installations have been from Xorg and not Xfree86, and do not generally have a config file. I suggest you take a look at how R was built and ensure that the cairo-based device is available.

The 'modern' X11 device (from 2007) uses cairographics and does not use X11 fonts. You are dragging up ancient history (2002). See ?X11 and the 'R Installation and Administration Manual'. Ripley replied to a similar issue in 2013 with I looked around a bit, but could only find quite old threads. X11 font -adobe-helvetica-%s-%s-%d-*, face 2 at size 11 could not be loaded It is a new install and when trying to plot I am getting above error messageĮrror in title(main = "Test", line = -1) : I am on Ubuntu 13.10, with R version 3.1.0 beta ( r65330) - "Spring Dance" (64 bit).
