most likely cause is that the installation of rkward is somehow broken. Could 
you try the following in a plain session of R (outside of rkward):

	library (rkward)
	.rk.set.reply (NULL)
	base::q ()

Does it look like the rkward library can be found this way? If not, try
	sudo make install
again, and watch out closely for any problems (the subdirectory of interest is 
rkward/rbackend/rpackages). Any helpful pointers in there?

Well, if you find out you like rkward, perhaps you'll consider contributing 
some code, some day. There's a lot of areas a C++ coder could work on in 
rkward, even without much knowledge of R.
