Dear R Users, I have an unbalanced panel with (on average) approx. 100 individuals over 1370 time intervals (with individual time series of different lengths, varying between 60 and 1370 time intervals). I use the following model: res1-plm(x~c+d+e,data=pdata_frame, effect=twoways,

Re: [R] error in La.svd Lapack routine 'dgesdd'

Addendum to my first post: Since I wish to understand what plm does to my data, I tried to manually calculate the demeaned values and use OLS. See below how far I got with the Grunfeld data; formula's are based on Greene's Econometric Analysis. Obviously, I am missing at least one important

Re: [R] error in La.svd Lapack routine 'dgesdd'

Google the name dgesdd to get the documentation where you will find that the error code indicates that the SVD algorithm failed to converge. Evaluation of the singular values and vectors is done via an iterative optimization and on some occasions will fail to converge. Frequently this is
