Hi, I tried to access my machine with GRASS GIS via SSH and wanted to get the text based welcome screen of GRASS 7 (RC in Ubuntu) to select a mapset. Usually I am starting the GUI selection menu so I am not familiar with the text based startup. I thought that the command "grass70 -gtext" should launch the text-based menu however here I get:
radinger@grassgis:~$ grass70 -gtext Cleaning up temporary files... Starting GRASS GIS... WARNING: It appears that the X Windows system is not active. A graphical based user interface is not supported. Switching to text based interface mode. Hit RETURN to continue With -gtext I already indicated that I don't want to start a graphical based user interface so I am wondering about the warning. With hitting return I automatically start with the last mapset I used (like the command "grass70 -text) and don't get to a text based menu to e.g. create and start into a new mapset of a given location. What I am doing wrong? Of course I can create and switch to a new the mapset with g.mapset as an alternative. /Johannes
