[BioC] R crashes after image array plots hgu133plus2 in R2.6.0

[Martin Morgan]

Hi Richard --

what does sessionInfo() say? My guess (in a bit of rut on this!) is
that you need to update packages so that Bioconductor and R agree. See

http://www.bioconductor.org/docs/install-howto.html

Please report back to the list, and if you do not have success include
the output of sessionInfo(). Also provide additional detail about what
'crash' means (R error message? windows error dialog box?)
