[R] Error message

[Scott Raynaud]

Here's the info Michael Weylandt requested:

> installed.packages()[c("lme4","nlme","Matrix"),c(2,3,12)]
       LibPath                   Version       Built   
lme4   "/usr/lib/R/site-library" "0.999375-40" "2.13.1"
nlme   "/usr/lib/R/library"      "3.1-104"     "2.15.0"
Matrix "/usr/lib/R/library"      "1.0-6"       "2.15.0"

Looks like I have lme4 for version 2.13 rather than 2.15.  Am
I reading this right?  I didn't install this and I'm not a Linux
person so someone will have to tell me the command to 
obtain the Linux information requested.  Then maybe I can
figure whether to go to the Debian board or not.

I would guess you are using incompatible versions.  Is R up to date?  are both Matrix and lme4 up to date?

(If you posted sessionInfo() we'd know this...)
