Then I get this error: > "g.proj returned the following message: ERROR: region > for the current mapset is not set; run > "g.region"" there was a bug in the 6.4.0rc5 release unfortunately, but is now long since fixed. If you are building from source please try pulling the latest 6.4.0svn source code (ask again if you need help with that), or if using Ubuntu use the version from UbuntuGIS (ppa.launchpad.net). [oh, good, I see the 9.10/Karmic Ubuntu package finally got updated to fix this bug] > Any one run into this problem? If so, any pointers on how > to fix it? Pretty much any file I've tried to use in > GRASS gives me this error. yeah, it's pretty much a show-stopper. "sorry for the inconvenience." (you are using 6.4.0rc5, right??) Hamish
