Rstudio not showing plots on 'plots' pane. Also: "Error in dev.off() : cannot shut down device 1 (the null device)"

General system Newbie

Hello I recently installed rstudio-dekstop form AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rstudio-desktop

The issue is that I tried to resolve my problem turning off active devices as mentioned here: https://community.rstudio.com/t/plot-in-rstudio-not-showing-up/73389

First when I run dev.cur() I got this:

null device 1

instead of getting : “RStudioGD 2”

so I tried with dev.off() but it cannot shut down the null device

then I tried running: options(device = “RStudioGD”) as suggested here: (https://community.rstudio.com/t/the-graph-not-showing-up-in-the-plots-pane-in-rstudio/30671/4) But I got this:

C symbol name "rs_createGD" is not in the load table

what can I do?

Thanks for your time.

are you able to run simple stuff like demo(graphics) and generate plots? I am no rstudio expert, but using the rstudio-desktop-bin package I can run the demos for plotmath and graphics without issue.
