Hi,
   Still with the problem.
   First I can't run g.region -p3 in GRASS 6 because of I can't enter (I
don't have a valid mapset :( ).
   I check the DEFAULT_WIND and the WIND files and they are the same, and
still have the problem. Also, in the local mapsets I found not only a
WIND file but also a wind file, Is that right ?
   I will try to create a new Mapset and see what happens....

  Thanks

    D.
