d.mon - Problem

GRASS GRASS user
1

Hello Grassusers,

    I have just compiled GRASS on a SPARC10 running Solaris 2.2.
A few warnings and all but a successful compulation. I have
started grass and have run in some problems with the
d.mon command in reference to my XDRIVER.
  I get the following errors after I type :
    d.mon
    1 for start graphics monitor
            x0 for xdriver

Graphics driver [x0] started
ERROR: region for current mapset is not set
     run "g.region"
Problem selecting x0. will try once more.

I do get a window up but it is completely black.

Is this a problem that I have set something wrong in
selecting the database or problems with my XDRIVER?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Kym,

I reproduced this error by removing $LOCATION/WIND. See if this
file exists. (You see, it needs to know how to transform your map
coordinates to the monitor coordinate system.)

The problem is not with the XDRIVER, but your database.
