R Update Failed !!!

Hi R-listers, 

I just tried updating my R and now I can't even open it and it is prompting
me to relaunch then relaunch just reappears. And it will not open R. I am
afraid I may have lost my scripts. 

What should I do? I am running a MacBook OS X Version 10.5.8

1) Restore the entire system to an earlier date? 
2) Drag R from applications and reload R program (updated version)?

Will my script files still show up if I do either of these options this?

Please advise. Jean

Dear all,

I would like to add mixed effects in a multinomial model and I am trying
to use MCMCglmm for that.

The main problem I face: my data set is a trapping data set, where the
observation at each trap (1 or 0 for several species) have been
aggregated per trapline (i.e. 25 traps). Therefore we have a proportion
of presence/absence for each species per trapline.

ex:
  ID_line mesh habitat Apsy Mygl Crle Crru Miag Miar Mimi Mumu Misu Soar
Somi
11  028S6A   28   copse    2    0    0    0    0    0    0    0    0
0    0
12  028S6B   28   copse    1    1    0    0    0    0    0    0    0
0    0
13  028S6C   28   hedge    2    0    0    4    0    0    0    0    0
0    0
14  028S6D   28   hedge    1    0    0    7    0    0    0    0    1
0    0
15  028S6E   28   hedge    7    0    0    1    0    0    0    0    0
0    0
  empty
11    28
12    28
13    24
14    21
15    22

When I run the following:

 > test1 <-
MCMCglmm(fixed=cbind(Apsy,Mygl,Crle,Crru,Miag,Miar,Mimi,Mumu,Misu,Soar,Somi,empty)~habitat,random=~mesh,family="multinomial12",data=metalSmA[,c(2,9,23:34)],rcov=~us(trait):units)


I got some error concerning the variance structure:

 > "ill-conditioned G/R structure: use proper priors if you haven't or
rescale data if you have"

I guess that the problem comes from the nature of my observations which
are frequencies instead of 0/1 per unit

Does someone know if a multinomial model fitted with MCMCglmm can handle
those frequencies table and how to specify the good G/R variance
structures?
