We are finding that 7 is more or less the same as vista (marketing... :wink: ): GRASS
used from QGIS plugin crashes at about the same commands as in vista.
All the best.

Did you compile it on Windows 7?

are you joking :wink: ? No windows here - it's just the results of several courses we are
doing, always using the OSGeo4W installer.
maybe compiling for vista or 7 solves the problems, no idea - however, the fact that
the crashes are often the same in 7 and vista makes me think they are in fact the
same system.
All the best.

Not really - I don't assume that a Vista-compiled winGRASS is
necessarily 100% compliant with Windows 7 despite whatsoever
marketing statement. But I get the point :slight_smile:

We have installed OSGeo4W-QGIS-GRASS here on XP today.
It delivered a version from May 2009 which is about 2000 SVN
revisions ago. Is there hope to get a fresh recompile from the
SVN 6.4 release branch? Or did we miss anything?

thanks

AFAIK, you're right - any volunteer to help with OSGeo4w compilation?
All the best.

Can you try running GRASS in "XP Mode" and report back how it works?
Thanks,
