I'm still unsure of the steps you are taking. Are you opening a GRASS 
location/mapset - for example from GRASS tools under Plugins ->, then from 
the tools choosing the console, and entering the command to start R there? 
Could you put a sequence of screenshots describing your process on a site 
somewhere - I have no problem with regular QGIS 0.11.0. Starting spgrass6 
outside the GRASS environment will most likely not work well at all, 
because nothing that it needs to run is available (progam PATH, data 
location, etc.).
