1. If you find that you are unable to start GRASS, delete the files
~/.grassrc5 and ~/.tcltkgrass. If the startup sequence fails, these
files are often corrupted.

2. If you have problems with tcltkgrass, start GRASS in text mode with
"grass5 -text". Once you have created or selected a location, you can
start tcltkgrass separately with "tcltkgrass &".
