Dear Grass-users,Dear Grass-users,
Have installed grass4.1.5 including update patch1 and Linux >slackware3
with kernel 1.2.13 in umsdos mode on a Compaq Presario 5522
after splitting my harddisk with fips.Run win95 on the other part.
Video chip set S3-Trio64
Everything seems fine exept:
When I try d.mon start=x0 or d.mon select=x0 ,a monitor comes up but
then the following message:
$:Error - Could not complete locking process for monitor <x0>
Lockfile is /usr/local/grass/locks/darkstar/mon.4721494
Being a total novice to both Linux and Grass Im at a loss at this one.
Suspect a problem with memory or initab file.Help Help Help.....
Thanks in advance
