Thanks. I seem to have gotten a bit further, but still not completely successful.
BTW, I should have said that I am running R 2.8.1 GUI 1.27 Tiger build 32-bit (5301). X11 starts fine from the icon. library(tcltk) loads fine. Now I get this when I load Rcmdr: ------------------------------ > library(Rcmdr) Loading required package: car Error in getClass(class(x)) : "lmer" is not a defined class Error : .onAttach failed in 'attachNamespace' Error: package/namespace load failed for 'Rcmdr' ------------------------------ Any help would be appreciated.
