Hi Jim!

I installed the packages by using R CMD INSTALL "package name". This is the
result of sessionInfo:

__________________________________________________________________
> sessionInfo()
Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01)
i686-pc-linux-gnu

attached base packages:
[1] "tools"     "methods"   "stats"     "graphics"  "grDevices" "utils"
[7] "datasets"  "base"

other attached packages:
    affy   affyio  Biobase
1.10.0  "1.0.0"  "1.8.0"
_____________________________________________________________________

Best regards,
Lina

This looks like you have incompatible versions of Biobase and affy. How 
exactly did you install the packages? Also, please send the results of 
sessionInfo() after you have loaded the affy package.

Best,
