gains printout of only 2 groups

Machine Learning and Modeling

I have specified 10 groups. Why is response with two levels displaying only 2 groups? Please see R code used. I am looking for a good explanation of the output.

I later do a gains chart which gives a similar error. cumulative gains plot looks fine.

R code:
gains(actual, predicted, groups=10,
ties.method=c("max","min","first","average","random"),
conf=c("none","normal","t","boot"), boot.reps=1000, conf.level=0.95,
optimal=FALSE,percents=TRUE)

Output:

Warning message:
In gains(actual, predicted, groups = 10, ties.method = c("max",  :
  Warning: Fewer distinct predicted values than groups requested

R code:
library(gains)
plot(with(train,gains(actual,predicted,optimal=TRUE)))

# cumulative gains chart
library(CustomerScoringMetrics)
cumGainsChart(predicted, actual, resolution = 1/10)
