Hi folks:
Yesterday my GRASS4.1 system got corrupted and I restored the entire
GRASS home directory from a tape backup (binaries and all). Now I am having
trouble re-establishing the system. I have used the original setup.script.
The links between the binaries and front.end seem to work, and I seem to have
access to the graphics drivers, but I get the following message when I hit
ESC to continue at the opening GRASS screen (before the GRASS > prompt:
********************************************************************************
Sorry, <MONITOR> is not a valid parameter
Usage:
g.gisenv [-lLprs] [start=name] [stop=name] [select=name]
[unlock=name]
Flags:
-l List all monitors
-L List all monitors (with current status)
-p Print name of currently selected monitor
-r Release currently selected monitor
-s Do not automatically select when starting
Parameters:
start Name of graphics monitor to start
stop Name of graphics monitor to stop
select Name of graphics monitor to select
unlock Name of graphics monitor to unlock
OPTION: Name of graphics monitor to start
key: start
required: NO
enter option >
********************************************************************************
It seems that the initial call to g.gisenv in the GIS.sh startup script is
unhappy. Can anyone suggest what I might need to do to fix this?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
