John: I am having problems too. On AMD64, rgl was flaky under Fedora Core 2 and crashes everytime on FC3. It also crashes on 32-bit FC3 using Xvfb.
Could you please make it optional: few users will actually want it in every session.

Hello,
I'm a admin over at Harvard University and I have quite a few users that use R predominately over VNC. In the past this has not been an issue, but after upgrading to R 2.0.0 they can no longer use RCmdr over VNC. When trying to use the package, they see the following:
library("Rcmdr")Loading required package: tcltk Loading required package: zoo Loading required package: strucchange Loading required package: sandwich Loading required package: rgl RGL: GLX extension missing on server Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) : error rgl_init Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The same commands work fine when using a non-VNC display. Is it at all possible to modify RCmdr to not use GLX when it is unavailable?
Regards, Bob
