R help - Feb 2002 - R gnome produces errors?: a clue!

I've got something that might be a clue to understand
the strange behaviour of lda in R --gui="gnome":

in R --vanilla:

library(MASS)
load("mod23puriflda.rda")
> a <- lda.default(x=mod23puriflda[,2:5],grouping=mod23puriflda[,6],CV=F)
works fine. I save lda.default as a local rda file:
> milda.nognome <- lda.default
> save(milda.nognome,file="milda.nognome.rda")
Then in R --vanilla --gui="gnome"

library(MASS)
load("mod23puriflda.rda")
> a
<-lda.default(x=mod23puriflda[,2:5],grouping=mod23puriflda[,6],CV=F,method="moment")
Error in lda.default(x = mod23puriflda[, 2:5], grouping = mod23puriflda[,
: 
	length of dimnames[2] not equal to array extent
In addition: Warning message: 
variables are collinear in: lda.default(x = mod23puriflda[, 2:5], grouping
= mod23puriflda[,  

Does not work, BUT:
> load("milda.nognome.rda")
> a <-
milda.nognome(x=mod23puriflda[,2:5],grouping=mod23puriflda[,6],CV=F,method="moment")

WORKS!!

and, still in  R --vanilla --gui="gnome", I save lda.default to
another
rda file:
> milda.gnome <- lda.default
> save(milda.gnome,file="milda.gnome.rda")
Then back to R --vanilla
> load("milda.gnome.rda")
> a <- milda.gnome(x=mod23puriflda[,2:5],grouping=mod23puriflda[,6],CV=F)
Error in milda.gnome(x = mod23puriflda[, 2:5], grouping = mod23puriflda[,
:
        length of dimnames[2] not equal to array extent
In addition: Warning message:
variables are collinear in: milda.gnome(x = mod23puriflda[, 2:5], grouping
= mod23puriflda[,

Does not work !!

Therefore, gnome is really changing something, but what?

Perhaps you are loading different versions of the MASS library,
depending on which interface you are using.

.path.package()

will tell you.

Hello, All: I am new to R. I wonder if there is package for nonparametric or 
semiparametric processing of time series. Thank you very much.
