Xdriver prob.

[R. Joe Brandon]

A:  After successfully compiling the XDRIVER on my MkLInux box when I now 
try to start monitor x0 I am told the fifo.1a (?) file is not present in the dev (?).  
As it compiled i watched it parse the error ...fifo.1a not 
present... fifo.1a sucessfully written, etc...

B:  The CELL drive woudl not compile and returned the error

/usr/local/grass5.0beta/src/display/devices/CELL
make -f OBJ.linux/make.rules

OBJ.linux/make.rules:143: *** missing seperator  stop.
GISGEN failure at STEP: /src/display/devices/CELL

C:  Even though I could not display anything I was testing out some of 
the functionality.  I created a site list, then in s.menu converted that 
to a raster.  r.report worked on the created map, but when I tried 
r.buffer I got the error  

Warning:  unable to find a temporary null file 
/usr/local/grass_data/rjoe_test/grass/.tmp/localhost.localdomain/3490.1

I checked under 
/usr/local/grass_data/rjoe_test/grass/.tmp/localhost.localdomain/

and there was no file 3490.1

D: I also tried r.random and had the error returned:

Warning: Can't write embedded null values for map open for randoms access

I have not seen this many errors since my old sysadmin installed 
Grass4.1 for the first time on an HP in 93...any ideas, I have the 
feeling I am missing something basic here.  Thanks.
