If you can manage to install a 6.4.0rc, many things may be fixed.

i try this instruction but i have th e problem.
when i try

v.digit -n map=name_of_vector bgcmd="picture1@my_mapset"
i have the white screen and

(bgcmd needs to have the d.rast part too, not just a map name)

v.digit -n map=name_of_vector bgcmd="d.rast picture1@my_mapset"
i hace the error message
d.rast picture1@my_mapset is not a coorect instruction

are you running this from the GUI or from the command prompt?

In the tcltk gis.m GUI output window + [Run] box thing the command
needs to be quoted in Tcl style:

v.digit -n map=name_of_vector bgcmd={d.rast picture1@my_mapset}

hope it helps,
