I tested your data and commands without any error message on a linux debian distribution: > [...] > z<-lda(assignment ~ .,actaData,prior=prio,tol=1.0e-08) > z Call: lda.formula(assignment ~ ., data = actaData, prior = prio, tol = 1e-08) Prior probabilities of groups: 5 6 0.5 0.5 Group means: diagonal.moment cluster.shade histogram.kurtosis 5 84.94982 -11989.17 -0.1116342 6 138.31495 -18892.15 -0.1205776 Coefficients of linear discriminants: LD1 diagonal.moment -1.575854e-03 cluster.shade -1.209398e-04 histogram.kurtosis -2.028278e+02 > can anybody help me? i am using R 1.5.1 (2002.06.17) on > debian woody stable.

You may download the 1.7.1 deb packages from CRAN, and install them with dpkg. Or even better, you can create your own debs from the sources, all the required files are the package. tar xvzf R-1.7.1.tgz cd R-1.7.1 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot And a few coffees later, you will find a fairly large number of deb files in the parent directory. -- Philippe ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
