Should the Sweave package be in /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/? How about
Sweave.sty?

I meant Sweave.sty, there's no separate Sweave package. It should be in the R home directory, somewhere within share/texmf.

The Schunk, Sinput, and Soutput environments are defined in Sweave package.
Something went wrong and latex didn't find them, either because it didn't find
Sweave.sty, or because it did, but that file has been messed up.

Are there really spaces between the backslashes and the macros?  I think that
doesn't work.  You should also have the \usepackage{Sweave} line after the
opening \documentclass line.
