some notes:
- you can run 5.0 and 5.1 at the same time (current region (WIND)
is shared so run modules in both at the same time may be problem)- XDRIVER is modified, some modules (d.what.*) are not backward/forward
compatible. Unfortunately management of XDRIVERs is not separated,
you must not select XDRIVER started by other version.
An update here:
Meanwhile the management of XDRIVERs *is* separated between 5.0 and 5.1.
You can use now the same monitor names in a parallel 5.0/5.1 session,
no more tricks required.
