In my above question, the error message was actually:
> Graphics driver [x0] started

When I run "d.mon start=x0" the first time. The rest of the error was the same 
and I 
got a window open on my desktop. But it was NOT locked?
If I try the d.mon the second time, I got above "already running" and the rest 
error 
still the same.

Please someone help me find the error!
