[GRASS5] [bug #4140] (grass) Nviz doesn't start either from GUI or command line in 6.1cvs generic binary snapshot

this bug's URL: http://intevation.de/rt/webrt?serial_num=4140
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Subject: Nviz doesn't start either from GUI or command line in 6.1cvs generic binary snapshot

Platform: GNU/Linux/x86
grass obtained from: Trento Italy site
grass binary for platform: Downloaded precompiled Binaries
GRASS Version: 6.1cvs binary 2006-03-04

Upon typing nviz on command line and selecting an elevation raster in the nviz GUI, the green status bar builds to 100% but nothing happens afterward. The message box area of the nviz GUI reads:

Update elev null mask
Loading Data
translating colors from fp

but no other errors are indicated. The exact same behavior is observed if nviz is run from the display manager GUI.

Eric,

can you please post the related
g.region -p
?

(some people tried to load the world at 2cm resolution in the past :slight_smile:

Just to be sure, because the numbers of rows/cols matters.
Since "Loading Data" seems to be complete, it could also be a color
table issue (not sure).

Eric,

can you please post the related
g.region -p
?

Also please try running your NVIZ command from the CLI and see what
happens. I just suppose there might be a segfault, which will be not
visible in the GUI output.

A research assistant in my lab reported an identical issue and solved it
today with a symlink to a newer version of libtif I believe. I don't KNOW
that this is the problem, but is sounds suspiciously similar. Of course I
can't remember the details of the symlink or which version of libtif. So I'm
copying him here.
