[R] R, postgresql, windows & bsd

[v.demartino2@virgilio.it]

I usually work with R on a windows querying data through RODBC from a postgresql
db on a freebsd machine on my offcie lan. 
Now I have the chance to use R also on a linux gentoo client box and to
connect to the same db.
I know that I can install   the unixodbc stuff and stick to RODBC, BUT my
question is:

Is there any more 'linuxish' way of querying a postgresql server from a
client?
