d.mon error

I'm  running GRASS on my NT box from my Linux box via Hummingbird's Exceed X Windows system.  However, I am
unable to open a monitor with d.mon.  The error message is as follows.

X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request : 78 (X_CreateColormap)
Serial number of failed request: 268
Current serial number in output stream: 269
Please start graphics monitor <x0>
Error - Graphics monitor <x0> not running!
Problem selecting x0 will try once more.

I've set my env DISPLAY variable to the NT box and set the xhost varible on the Linux box to the NT which I thought
would fix the problem but alas....

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers, Brad
