Are you using Unity ? GNOME ? KDE ? A session over ssh ?

I'm really no windows management and graphical environment expert, but apparently some windows managers do not set this variable.

After the uninstall, I have:

'echo $SESSION_MANAGER' returns nothing both inside and outside the
GRASS GIS environment in terminal.

        Markus, you're a genius! I just tried starting the version of GRASS
        available on the apt repositories and got this message:

        awickert@dakib:~$ grass
        Cleaning up temporary files ...
        Starting GRASS ...
        ERROR: wxGUI does not support wxPython 3.0.0.0 yet.
        Error in GUI startup. If necessary, please
        report this error to the GRASS developers.
        Switching to text mode now.
        Hit RETURN to continue...

        So I think that what you are saying is that wxPython 3 somehow
        becomes
        the default / interferes with GRASS. I did:

        awickert@dakib:~$ sudo apt-get remove python-wxgtk3.0

        and now everything works. Well, hopefully my removal of wxPython 3
        doesn't break something else, so hm, is there a way to ensure
        that GRASS
        GIS always looks for wxPython 2?



    The idea is rather to try to solve any errors concerning wxPython 3
    as it is more and more becoming the default in Linux distributions.
    Anna has been quite active in trying to solve any specific wxPython3
    issues.

    On my Debian Testing system I have Python 2.7.8 and wxPython:
    3.0.1.1 and I do not see your error. So it would be interesting to
    explore what happens on your system. What graphical environment are
    you running in ? What does 'echo $SESSION_MANAGER' in a terminal
    give you ?
