What version of R?  What OS?

No problems here using R version 2.5.0 Patched (2007-06-05 r41831) on
F7.

You might want to check and see what par("lty") and par("lwd") return,
in case they have been set to values resulting in lines that you would
not be able to see.

BTW, the c() is not required in creating 'x':

> x <- 1:10
> x
 [1]  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10
