Hi
'nviz -q' fails to launch nviz, some windows flash up and disappear
straight away. In
'/usr/local/src/grass61/grass-6.1.cvs_src_snapshot_2006_06_24/visualization/README' Markus hints that this is to do with the naming of the tkInt.h and
tkIntDecls.h
But step 3 looses me. Could we have an example of how we should use
the 'elif' statement.
cheers
Dave

what version of GRASS and TclTk? GRASS 6.0 can have problems with TclTk
8.4, so you might need to compile it with tcltk8.3-dev files. GRASS 6.1
has been fixed to work with all versions of TclTk 8.4. I don't know
about TclTk 8.5.

Sorry to forget the TcltTK version. I have tcl8.4 and tk8.4 installed
as binaries from the Debian repository. My sources.list looks like
deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ etch main contrib non-free
deb-src http://pkg-grass.alioth.debian.org/debian-gis stable main non-free contrib
The GRASS version was hidden in the email, I'm using 6.1 from this
weeks cvs. But, I noticed the path was wrong in my first email, the
README I was refering to was in
"/usr/local/src/grass61/grass-6.1.cvs_src_snapshot_2006_06_24/visualization/nviz/src".
The README suggests renaming tkInt.h and tkIntDecls.h, not too tricky,
but then it talks about editing togl.c which seems a lot more taxing
to thsoe who don't know what they are donig.
So how do I go about getting nviz to talk with TclTk? I think this question amounts to "How we should I
specify the 'elif' statement in togl.c?"
many thanks
Dave

I am using almost the same setup, Debian/sarge with Tcltk 8.4 and GRASS
6.1 cvs from a week ago. (and it works)
does "nviz -q" from the GRASS command prompt output anything to the
terminal window?

I think you can ignore that tkInt.h stuff, red herring.

Here's the output. As for the nviz windows, they flash up for a
fraction of a second.
GRASS 6.1.cvs (zhang):~ > nviz -q
X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GetWindowAttributes)
Resource id in failed request: 0xffffffff
Serial number of failed request: 191
Current serial number in output stream: 192
I am using the AMD64 version of Etch.
