Sorry for replying to my own post here, but a quick follow up, as I had
not seen this referenced in the prior posts.

Peter Dalgaard, of R Core, referenced that he was able to use the
following from the Fedora FAQ:

  http://www.fedorafaq.org/#java

along with the 'sed' xinerama fix. I am a bit more educated on that
issue now...  :-)

There is a Sun bug report here:

http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6532373


The Fedora FAQ entry was apparently just updated in the past few days.

This FAQ entry is also now included in the SVN version of the R Admin manual
along with a reference to the IcedTea issues on F8.

HTH,

Marc
