[GRASS5] problem with r.spread

[Dirk Dennig]

Dear community,

I am a new GRASS user. My binary Grass 5.0 was downloaded from the 
University Hannover server and is running on Linux Red Hat 8.0. My 
computer is a Laptop PC, 256 MB RAM.
The program is running - I did some tutorials and everything worked 
fine, except r.spread.
I am using this program to study fire simulations. To learn how all this 
is working in GRASS I downloaded the fire simulation package from the 
GRASS server. There is a script called firedemo.sh. When I run it, it 
gives a segmentation fault, after it passed the r.spread function. This 
also happens, when I run only the r.spread program.
I don't know any C yet, so it is very time consuming to find out, where 
the problem is. It seems like "replaceHa()" it called a couple of times 
and than stops with a seg fault.
I can attach a message from gdb.

Reading inputs ... 100%
Reading fire_origin ...  100%
Finding spread time - number of cells visited in percentage ...    0%(no 
debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)...
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x0804cd50 in replaceHa ()  

I know somebody else trying to work with r.spread as well. She had the 
same problem as me. The odd thing is, she said r.spread worked on the 
windows port. The windows port is not running on my machine (OS: Windows 
2000), but that is another story...

I hope the provided information is sufficient enough to understand my 
problem.

Regards,
Dirk
