I've managed to successfully use R (based on a remote Linux server) and have th
e graphics piped back to me via SSH on a windows machine..
Take a look at XMing on the windows side, along with PuTTY.

hi, Kevin and K.Elo:
thank you for the suggestion. Can you be more specific on these? (like
how exactly get into x-switch or man ssh). I am totally ignorant about
linux and SSH....:( Memory limitation forces me to switch from
windows to Linux cluster.....
Could you provide us with more information about the software you use
for establishing the ssh connection (i.e. your ssh client). I suppose
you are connecting a linux server (having R on it) from a windows
system, aren't you? And you use a ssh client software, right? There
should be an "enable X11 forwarding" (or something similar) option in
your ssh client application. You should look e.g. in "connection
settings".
When I have to work from Windows (i do not like it:-), I use Putty
[1]http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ - there is possibility to
enable X11 forwarding enabling using also applications with windows. But here
I can not help - see documentation. Another possibility should be exporting
the graphs to files without viewing and then downloading using SCP or SFTP. Or
it might be possible to use some VNC client and to connect to the server with
full-featured remote desktop. But here more information would provide local
admin.

Kind regards,

Agree. Sounds like you are using a client on Windows. Also, Vojtech
Zeisek's reply is pertinent too.
