Problem with convergence of ARMA and GARCH models
by Blaise Roncagli
I am a new user to Gretl, and am using version 1.2.9. I have noticed
that frequently when I attempt to run an ARMA or GARCH model I get a
message "Convergence Criteria not met". I know what this means, but it
seems to happen frequently with data sets that do not experience this
problem when I use them in "R" or other packages. Is this a known
problem, or is there some parameter I need to adjust to make this go
away?

Heteroskedasticity test
by Ignacio Díaz-Emparanza
Allin,
I have been building some examples about heteroskedasticity data with gretl.
I had two variables whose linear relationship had hetero. and so I regressed
y on x using 1/sqrt(x) as weigths. Then, I suspected that the residuals were
heteroskedastic yet, so I tried to do some testing on them.
Firstly, I cannot do a LM test on the WLS regression (¿Why not? umm I have to
think a while about it ... I know that the regressor now is xt*wt, and so
the test may have a different interpretation, but ... may have any sense in
this case, ¿or not?).
Secondly, as I did not have the test, I saved the WLS residuals an regressed
them over a constant (by OLS), so I had a window model, and the
heteroskedasticity test was active in the corresponding menu. I selected this
and ... gretl exited!!, and saving anything. In fact I have seen that
regressing any variable over a constant, the same occurs. I understand that
the Hetero. test runs a regression of the residuals over the regressors and
their squares, and so in this case there were no regressors, but I think
Gretl should act in another form. For example in this case gretl may ask for
a variable, or use the index ...

gretl compilation problem
by Jean Magnan de Bornier
Hello
There seems to be some problem with my inscription on this list, since i
could send this message yesterday but did not receive the answer. I
looked at the archives to find out I had this answer; so sorry for
writing back so late.
So if someone care to answer this post, please include my address as Gcc

These are fortran-related references that are undefined. Somehow
you're missing a link to libf2c (and probably lapack too). Can you
take a look at your config.log, and see what it says after "checking
for LAPACK"? You could also look for the line starting
"LAPACK_LIBS =" in the Makefile in the lib directory, and see what
it says.
Well, what I did with LAPACK_LIBS is I had to define it for the
./configure to happen, it was apparently no where expected:
"LAPACK_LIBS =/usr/lib/liblapack.a ./configure", and then configure
happened all right.
Maybe I should say the same for make?
Thank for any hint,
