[gradsusr] Not all variables plotting

[james]

Hi

I've upgraded my laptop to Opensuse 11.3 but am having some trouble accessing 
grib2 data using the latest version of OpenGrADs.

I've put OpenGrads Version 2.0.a8.oga.1 for Linux on this machine.

>From the Grib2 data I make a ctl file using g2ctl v 0.0.4o - this seems fine.
gribmap -i $datadir/gfsgrb2.ctl works okay (well makes a plausable .idx file).

In grads I open the gfsgrb2 file okay, and it plots winds and some variables 
okay. 

However, for others I get the message:
ga-> d apcpsfc
GRIB2 I/O error: message not found
Data Request Error:  Error for variable 'apcpsfc'
  Error ocurred at column 1
DISPLAY error:  Invalid expression 
  Expression = apcpsfc

I can get it to work using an old (v 2.0.a5) grads executable, but the latest 
v isn't happy with around 50% of variables.

One thought is it a problem with the undef setting? 

I note my .ctl file has undef 9.999E+20 which isn't the standard anymore. 

Any ideas?

James
