Problems starting GRASS for Linux

[Howard Thomas, II Foster]

look at ftp://129.229.103.1/pub/grass/outgoing/libcurses.so.1.README

And while I'm talking to you.... I just installed GRASS on a Linux box also.
I was wondering about using XGrass but it requires Motif libraries.  Do you
know if XGrass will run with the LessTif libraries?
