[R] Unable to load package:lme4 [ Ubuntu 9.04 ]

Hi folks,

When I try to load package 'lme4' on my Linux box (64-bit Ubuntu
9.04), I get the following error:

-------------------------------------
> library(lme4)
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
  function 'cholmod_start' not provided by package 'Matrix'
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'lme4'
------------------------------------

I removed and re-installed both 'Matrix' and 'lme4', but that doesn't
seem to solve the problem. If this is something for the [R-sig-ME]
mailing list, please let me know.

Thanks,

-Girish
