[BioC] bioMart error when accessing database

[Rhoda Kinsella]

Hi Kristian,
I have been in contact with one of the Biomart developers and he  
thinks this displayType is an internal property of the biomaRt  
bioconductor package. Steffen, is this something that needs to be  
modified in the biomaRt code or is there something missing at the  
ensembl side that needs to be added?
Regards,
Rhoda
