When you say X11, I assume you mean no GUI, or maybe the GUI in X11? Note, there are 2 different GUIs now, and on OSX, 2 variations of one:

TclTk X11 - works with an X11 TclTk 8.4+. This requires you to compile and install your own TclTk. I used to include one in the application, but not since we got it working with Aqua

TclTk Aqua - as the warning implies, this needs TclTk 8.5+. The readme says where to find an installer. This one is preferred.

wxPython.  This is included in the application.

Note 1: the TclTk NVIZ is built to use TclTk Aqua 8.5 and won't run with 8.4 of any form.

Note 2: the application startup tries to locate TclTk in some default locations and of forms in the following order:

TclTk 8.5 Aqua
TclTk 8.5 X11
TclTk 8.4 X11


Anyways, after GRASS starts and Wish fails, type in the Terminal:

g.gisenv set=GRASS_GUI=text

Thereafter GRASS won't try to start the TclTk GUI.

Hi all

I have GRASS-6.4 working fine on a Mac laptop, where it opens X11. I've
installed it on a desktop, where it insists on opening Wish, and then
malfunctions. There is a" Warning: TclTk Aqua 8.4 unsupported" in the
Terminal window as it opens. Then an allegation that my projection field is
missing when I run, for example, g.region, and some similar errors.

This is with Spearfish, the exact same files working on the laptop.

Any ideas? Can I just rid of Wish and get the desktop to use X11?

Thanks,
Michael
