v.digit problems on Linux

Certainly many people digitize using GRASS and v.digit, but I'm not sure
how many do it on Intel machines running Linux. I have a feeling that
this is a hardware/software (as in I/O) problem more than a GRASS
problem. Any Linux gurus out there that could shed some light on this
issue??

We are running Mr Kang (kang@risca.rs.msu.edu) compilation of Grass 4.1.5
on a Linux elf 1.2.13 machine and we have some problems with v.digit .
We cannot setup the digitizer (Summagraphics MICROGRID III) to work with
Grass. I wonder, does anyone digitize on Grass. What is the phyloshophy
of v.digit . If any of you digitize under Grass please send your v.digit
or suggestions how to solve my problem, or any kind of help.
