Hi,

I tried to access my machine with GRASS GIS via SSH and wanted to get
the text based welcome screen of GRASS 7 (RC in Ubuntu) to select a
mapset. Usually I am starting the GUI selection menu so I am not
familiar with the text based startup. I thought that the command
"grass70 -gtext" should launch the text-based menu however here I get:

radinger@grassgis:~$ grass70 -gtext

Cleaning up temporary files...

Starting GRASS GIS...

WARNING: It appears that the X Windows system is not active.

A graphical based user interface is not supported.

Switching to text based interface mode.


Hit RETURN to continue


With -gtext I already indicated that I don't want to start a graphical
based user interface so I am wondering about the warning. With hitting
return I automatically start with the last mapset I used (like the
command "grass70 -text) and don't get to a text based menu to e.g.
create and start into a new mapset of a given location.

What I am doing wrong?

'-gtext' asks to show the GUI welcome screen
'-text' skips even that so that's probably what you need.
