Dear All, I need the libraries GOstats, tkWidgets and gcrma. I'm not able to load them, independently from the order in a Windows 2000 professional system with R2.2 and the current Bioc1.7 packages. I get a generic fatal error ("Rgui.exe caused an error and will be closed.." sorry but this is a translation from the error message in italian..) I can successfully loading them in pairs.. I also tried with Windows 2000, R2.1 and Bioc 1.6, and I have got the same error. No problems on Suse 9.3, R2.1, BioC 1.7... tkWidgets and gcrma are in the dependencies of a package X that I have written. I really would not need them in the same moment, but they are obviously loaded when loading the package X. I unsuccessfully tried to detach them before loading GOstats (the last one that I need): #library(tkWidgets) #library(gcrma) .... some code that uses these two libraries.... #detach("package:gcrma") #gcrma depends on both matchprobes and affy packages #detach("package:matchprobes") #detach("package:affy") #library(GOstats) but that did not help. Conversely if I load: #library(tkWidgets) #library(GOstats) I get no errors.. I'm a bit confused, about libraries having or not namespace, but it seems to me that 'detach(libY)' does not restore a clean workspace as before loading libY. do you have any hints on the reason of this error, or on the way to 'fully' unload the a library (in this case gcrma)? thanks in advance Mattia -- Mattia Pelizzola PhD Student Genopolis Consortium Milano-Bicocca University P.zza della Scienza 4 20126 Milano (Italy) tel:+390264483556 fax:+390264483552

Mattia, After looking around a bit, I think this is a bug in R having to do with creating many menus. I'll forward the information to the R-devel mailing list. As a very temporary workaround you could comment tkWidgets/R/zzz.R like this: ## addVigs2WinMenu("tkWidgets") and reinstall the modified tkWidgets package. No vignettes, but no crashes either...
