[GRASS-user] Invalid map size

[Marvin Eng]

Anna:
Your solution worked fine for the offending workspace file (*.gxw).
It had
display name="Display 1" . . . .  dim="-32000,-32000,160,39"

I changed that to 300 all round and I am now able to use that gxw with
display 1.

However, I seem to have broken something more basic. No matter how I start
the GRASS GUI (in demolocation or a newly created location or any of my
other locations) I get the same "Invalid map size" message and there is no
monitor.

Is there another 'workspace file' for the start up of GRASS that I should
be looking for to edit?
