Where did you download it from exactly?

Using Grass 6.1 CVS 2006-02-20 for me nviz starts ok from d.m. But I confirm
d.nviz doesn't - it prints following error message to the terminal instead:

---

ERROR: Required parameter <input> not set:
    (Name of existing raster map).

ERROR: Required parameter <output> not set:
    (Name of output script).

ERROR: Required parameter <dist> not set:
    (Camera layback distance (in map units)).

ERROR: Required parameter <ht> not set:
    (Camera height above terrain).

ERROR: Required parameter <DEFANGED_frames> not set:
    (Number of frames).
