<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div><br></div><div>I tried to access my machine with GRASS GIS via SSH and wanted to get the text based welcome screen of GRASS 7 (RC in Ubuntu) to select a mapset. Usually I am starting the GUI selection menu so I am not familiar with the text based startup. I thought that the command "grass70 -gtext" should launch the text-based menu however here I get:</div><div><br></div><div>
<p class="">radinger@grassgis:~$ grass70 -gtext</p>
<p class="">Cleaning up temporary files...</p><p class="">Starting GRASS GIS...</p>
<p class="">WARNING: It appears that the X Windows system is not active.</p>
<p class="">A graphical based user interface is not supported.</p>
<p class="">Switching to text based interface mode.</p>
<p class=""><br></p>
<p class="">Hit RETURN to continue</p><p class=""><br></p><p class="">With -gtext I already indicated that I don't want to start a graphical based user interface so I am wondering about the warning. With hitting return I automatically start with the last mapset I used (like the command "grass70 -text) and don't get to a text based menu to e.g. create and start into a new mapset of a given location.</p><p class="">What I am doing wrong?</p><p class=""><br></p><p class="">Of course I can create and switch to a new the mapset with g.mapset as an alternative.</p><p class=""><br></p><p class="">/Johannes</p></div></div>
