I installed Xubuntu on my notebook with GRASS6.2.2 (from the repository) and I 
tested spearfish.sh with good results!! Thank you very much for your 
suggestions and support!!

PS: I saw that elevation.dem_depth is the raster with the water depths in each 
cell. How can I see the values of these water depths?

I think trying to run Vista with only 512MB RAM, and then trying to run
a memory hungry module on top of that is pushing things a bit far.

Not enough memory. Did you set up any hard drive swap space? That can
help to push the stale stuff out of the way. Once you have used so much
that you are actively swapping back and forth to the disk it slows down
hugely. (same as MS Windows will)

Ok, but consider to use Xubuntu and other low-resource programs to
leave some memory spare. Gnome and KDE use a lot..

And be sure to test with elevation.dem not elevation.10m.
