I had this problem as well and I used a "user level" solution.... I started grass with sudo (sudo grass) and then created a new mapset (u can' t have access to the previous ones) to enter grass. After that you can install extensions without being prompted for a root password. Then exit and enter grass as usual. hth, sotiris
