OSGeo4W-GRASS: r.shaded.relief starts Windows XP mode (VM)

[pietror3]

Using OSGeo4W-GRASS 7.svn on Windows7-64bit, when starting r.shaded.relief from the wxGUI menu, it starts indeed the Windows XP mode (virtual machine) and does not continue.

Trying instead on command line, I get this error:

GRASS 7.0.svn> r.shaded.relief.py

Please try r.shaded.relief2 which is the new(er) C implementation which may replace the Python version.

Replying to pietror3:

GRASS 7.0.svn> r.shaded.relief.py

try just "r.shaded.relief" (no .py)

r.shaded.relief is a C module in G7, so this is probably not an issue anymore at least for G7. Reopen if needed.
