Paul, Thanks, 2.8.1 is the most up to date in the Ubuntu Repository, so that is the one I am using with Ubuntu. As a novice Ubuntu user I have been given the impression that it is best to stick with the version via synaptic/ubuntu repository BUT i agree this could well be a version incompatibility issue as rattle isn't available from the Ubuntu repository and installed directly from CRAN.
Maybe I need to uninstall the Ubuntu repository version and install the latest from CRAN. I admit I find this what to install from where a bit confusing.
