Hi,
  Is there any way to plot a Map with different shading patterns, instead
of color intensity, in R2.0.1 over Linux ?

  Thanks.

Yes, but not with plot.Map(). If you need to fill, or shade, you are 
working with polygons. Convert to the polylist object using Map2poly(), 
and use plot.polylist() - see help(plot.polylist) for an example with 
shading patterns (arguments angle= and density=).
