Hi, with newest R.app (1.11) / R2.1.0a if a package is installed for the current user, it is not installed properly (does not get an installed version entry and is not loadable). If installed system wide it works. The package I installed is xgobi. MAC OS X 10.4.1 Volker - - - - - - - - - - - - - ------ ---- ---- --- -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dipl.-Biol.

Hi Volker, Just tried this with 1 of the few packages I had not installed yet systemwide. In the Startup preferences I selected to add $Home/R/Library and restarted R. Then installed package its and loaded the library and ran the example. Can you try if that sequence works for you? A better alias for Mac questions is R-SIG-Mac.
