[BioC] affyPLM and exon array question

I suspect so, although I haven't tried running rma() directly.
Just.rma() works fine, and fitPLM is able to RMA normalize internally.

I was able to move this a little further along by patching the mm()
function to return empty list in the case of a dimensionless pset
variable.  Apparently it is usually a two-column matrix with pm in
psets[,1] and mm in psets[,2].  Heres the patch.

This allows me to successfully background correct and normalize with
RMA through wrapper function fitPLM from the affyPLM library.  It's
taking forever though, even running with minimal options.  Here's my
call:

fitPLM(ab, output.param=list(residuals=FALSE,weights=FALSE,resid.SE=FALSE),verbosity.level=10);

Any advice?
