sorry guys,
somehow i sent the mail without finishing to write it... sorry

so, again, i can no longer connect to the ensembl biomart via mysql:

mart <- useMart("ensembl", mysql=TRUE)

returns me an error "Requested BioMart database is not available..."
this is strange since it worked until the end of last week.
listMarts(mysql=TRUE) returns me only older ensembl versions (besides that
the getSequence function does not work with these databases). is there some
update in progress at ensembl, that the mysql database is currently not
available or do they have changed the port number?

thanks in advance!
jo
