Hi,
Sorry for that ..... Today R did load both ca and rgl packages with no problems
... the single thing i've done since Friday was to put "defrag" on drive C, i
even didn't re-start the computer ...actually it was re-started several time
with same weird problem ... so i suppose something was segmented badly on the
hard drive.
