Just installed R-1.7.0 (with recommended libraries) on RedHat 8.0. At R console, I can do> library (MASS) >just fine. However, if I put a line 'library(MASS)' into ~/.Rprofile, it fails to load, R : Copyright 2003, The R Development Core Team Version 1.7.0 (2003-04-16) .... Type `q()' to quit R. Error in get(x, envir, mode, inherits) : variable "biplot" was not found Error in library(MASS) : package/namespace load failed [Previously saved workspace restored]>What's happening? I also tried to load 'lattice' (which I assume is where biplot is defined) before 'MASS', but got the same error. Michael
