oops socket or server is not ready to accept connections. Anyway, 'bout
the only thing I can think of is to have d.mon sleep() for a little
while before trying to connect or after the first attempt failing. It
may be a little trial an error to decide how many seconds and/or if the
iterations of "try" should be increased. One second after first failure
might be sufficient. I only know that the CELL/PNG drivers are much
slower to start up than the X driver.If I wanted to get tricky, I would try to find out if the monitor is
running from the process list and try harder to connect if it is, or
just quit right away if it isn't. But I think the sleep() hack should
be sufficient.grass/src/display/d.mon/cmd/main.c
..
128 if (select->answer)
129 {
130 oops = run("select", select->answer); /* couldn't select */
131 if (oops && start->answer && strcmp (start->answer,
select->answer) == 0) /* try once more */
132 {
133 fprintf (stderr, "Problem selecting %s. Will try
once more\n", select->answer);
+++ sleep(1);
134 oops = run("select", select->answer); /* couldn't
select */
135 }
..P.S. Sorry, been a bit distracted from GRASS lately...
