problems running grass4.0 in macX

[Rebecca Scheckler]

I am trying to run grass 4.0 on my macIIvx using macX from sun4 on a
sparcII work station.  I get so far as to start grass but I cannot start a
graphic monitor.  The error messages that follow indicate a problem with a
font in macX.
However, rebuilding the font directory does not change the situation. 
Anyone out there with experience running grass in macX?
