Thanks for your reply. I used the following commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install r-base
Is that how you installed R-2-10 or how you tried to install 2.13.1?

Hello,
TO update R under Ubuntu on my macchine, I downloaded R-2.13.1. When running
./configure, I got the following error message:
checking for X... no
configure: error: --with-x=yes (default) and X11 headers/libs are not available
But I could use X11() function in R-2-10. So where does the problem come from?
Cheers,
Carol
It looks like you're compiling from source and your system does not have
the header files required installed. Did you compile your previous
version or use a pre-built (binary) package? A binary package would not
require the headers.
I don't use Ubuntu, so I don't know what the name of packages you need
for the headers. Typically the packages have the devel versions
separate, you you need those.
