    Probably checking:
     ls -al /media/Docs


Here is the result (I didn't paste the whole directory information) :

jer...@jeremy:~$  ls -al /media/Docs
drwxrwx--- 1 root plugdev    8192 2010-03-25 16:34 .
drwxr-xr-x 9 root root       4096 2010-03-28 12:37 ..
drwxrwx--- 1 root plugdev    4096 2010-03-11 21:33 geodata
OK, the owner of geodata is root (I assume that's not your username).

After verification I'm listed on the group plugdev.

     What OS are you on?


Running Ubuntu 9.10 with GRASS 6.4.0RC5.

    How is the partition mounted (i.e. what's in the /etc/fstab)? Is
    it a samba/cifs share or nfs?


This is the line about /media/Docs in /etc/fstab :
UUID=16A82CDCA82CBBDD /media/Docs ntfs defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 0

Try adding here uid=<your username> as an additional option. Something like:
UUID=16A82CDCA82CBBDD /media/Docs ntfs defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46,uid=jeremy 0 0

Then do a:
sudo mount -o remount /media/Docs
Now check ls -al /media/Docs/geodata/TESTS/grass
If you appear as the owner instead of root, then GRASS should startup OK.

If you want to try this out "on the fly" without changing your fstab, then you can: First check which disk (/dev/hdx or /dev/sdx where x might be 1,2,3...) is your ntfs partition with sudo fdisk -l, then...
sudo umount /media/Docs
sudo mount -o defaults,umask=0007,gid=46,uid=jeremy /dev/hdx /media/Docs
and check as above.

Let us know how it goes,
