Loading required package: RODBC

Hi all,
It's very strange. In RStudio, I can successfully load("RODBC"). But in
the plain R Console, I just couldn't get it work:
(For some special and important reasons, I have to make the RODBC work in
R Console, not the RStudio.)
At first, the some shared library "libodbc.so" couldn't be found... it's
right there, but R Console just couldn't find it.
I then find that the
Sys.getenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH") is different for R Console vs. RStudio.
Weirdly, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in RStudio even doesn't have any "ODBC"
terms/words in its long string...
I guess RStudio has some special configuration for RODBC, so it doesn't
require LD_LIBRARY_PATH to be set up for ODBC at all.
I then added the ODBC library path into the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in R Console.
I found that this problem is solved...
But then the R Console complained that the "ODBCINI" was set up correctly.
So I compared the "ODBCINI" in RStudio vs. "ODBCINI" in R Console, found
the R Console one seems to be missing.
I then copied the "ODBCINI" from RStudio and pasted it into R Console.
Now the load("RODBC") can run in the plain R Console, but then the whole
R console crashed without giving any errors/warnings...
It exited back to the shell prompt...
What can I do? Anybody please shed some lights on me on this?
Thanks a lot!
