Sweave uses a LaTeX style file, Sweave.sty, via \usepackage{Sweave} to
format R input/output in the final report.  It looks like this file is not
on your LaTeX search path.  I believe it can be found in:

  R_HOME/share/texmf

You could try:


  mkdir ~/texmf
  ln -s $R_HOME/share/texmf/Sweave.sty /home/<your user
name>/texmf/Sweave.sty
  texhash


As LaTeX will usually include ~/texmf as a place it will look for style
files on Linux.  The texhash command will cause the database of available
files to be rebuilt.  If the command:

  kpsewhich Sweave.sty

Returns nothing, then LaTeX won't be able to find the file Sweave.sty during
compilation unless it is in the same folder as the .tex file you are
compiling.

Hope this helps!
