6.2.* is too old. Consider updating at least to 6.4.0RC6 [1].

many thanks indeed. i have just realized now that only root can run grass62 and entering graphic mode without that errors which is not quite right. i need to su to root and run grass62.

very strange .

anyway, many many thanks indeed for your hints and for your times.

with best regards,
psr

need to su to root and run grass62.

This is unusual and not desired. Perhaps a permission problem of the
executable flags?
