[R] RMySQL...Can't initialize driver???

[Stephane Cruveiller]

Dear R users,

I would like to query a MySQL database through R. I have installed
the latest required packages (RMySQL and DBI) in R (v2.3.1). A MySQL
server (v5.0.22) is running on my local machine but I can't initialize 
MYSQL
driver:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 > library("RMySQL")
Loading required package: DBI
 > MySQL(max.con = 10, fetch.default.rec = 500, force.reload = F)
Error in new("MySQLDriver", Id = drvId) : unused argument(s) (Id ...)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Could somebody tell me what I have missed?


Thx

Stéphane.
