Thanks fro replying. Hmm no I'm using the standard 6.4.1 distro on Ubuntu 10.4 :(
Rebecca, The distribution and GRASS version has nothing to do with it.
Can I work round this? I don't really have time to build GRASS 7 on this machine...
Yep. I've no idea if there's a Ubuntu repository that installs a pre-built GRASS. If there is, it's probably built without the large file option. If so, see if you can grab the source and look for '--enable-largefile' in the configuration options. Otherwise, it will be worth your time to recompile the source using that option. It will allow GRASS to use the available memory on your machine rather than the default (which I believe is 64M). This is one reason why building from source (or using a package manager that lets you build on your local machines) is a good idea. Not everyone needs the options you do, and your hardware is not the same as everyone else's. Building your applications using your server/workstation ensures that they work for you.
