Ok thanks for the help, now i've compiled all the grass code on my
external drive and got no error.<br>
Now i can run grass with:<br>
#> /mnt/maxtor_linux/grass_home/grass53/bin/grass53<br>
but still remain some problem.....<br>
<br>
<b>- Monitor problem:</b><br>
I can run a monitor only if i am ROOT, otherwise i get the same old
error: <i>ERROR: In main.c: Couldn't get socket path.</i><br>
<br>
whoami gives the rigth answer;<br>
/tmp/grass-<username> is a directory, exist and i'm the owner;<br>
<br>
what am i missing? maybe mounting my external drive (where i put my
bin)?<br>
i use in fstab: <i>/dev/sda5 /mnt/maxtor_linux ext2
defaults 1 2</i><br>
<br>
<b>- Library problem:</b><br>
I cannot see libproj.so.0 because my LD_LIBRARY_PATH doesn't contain
the path /usr/local/lib.<br>
if i run: <i><br>
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib</i> <br>
everything goes fine.....<br>
<br>
but it should be already contemplate in some grass variable, in fact i
run:<br>
<br>
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -Wall" LDFLAGS="-s" ./configure
--prefix=/mnt/maxtor_linux/grass_home/grass53
--with-bindir=/mnt/maxtor_linux/grass_home/
--with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/pgsql/server/ --with-motif
--with-motif-includes=/usr/X11R6/LessTif/Motif1.2/include/
--with-motif-libs=/usr/X11R6/LessTif/Motif1.2/lib/ --with-blas
--with-lapack --with-glw --with-dbm
--with-dbm-includes=/usr/include/gdbm --with-freetype
--with-freetype-includes=/usr/include/freetype2/ --without-readline
--with-fftw --with-proj <b>--with-proj-libs=/usr/local/lib</b>
--with-cxx<br>
<br>
Any helps to give me?<br>
Thanks, and sorry for my limited linux knowledge<br>

Possible reasons for this error are:
1. It couldn't figure out your username (does the "whoami" program
give the correct information)?</pre>

These are a direct consequence of the driver failing to start due to
