Are you using the $MODEL/ data directory structure, eg $MODEL/eta, $MODEL/gfs, $MODEL/ruc, etc that is the default for the decoders I provide?
tuckerm@metlab01:~> ls $MODEL awc ens eta-ak ffg ice ngm nwsmdl qpf ruc ecmwf eta eta12km gfs mrf nohrsc nww radar ukmet
If everything is standard as I provide, then I can provide you with a new 5.8.4 binary of Grap which you might want to try. If the problem is directory structure, the same problems would persist.

I was using the GFS grids as an example. We get the same results (or lack thereof) with the ETA, MRF, RUC, ECMWF, and UK Met grids.

You might want to check the Garp_defaults entry for the thinned grid gfs model key, the associated fdf, and the $GEMTBL/config/datatype.tbl template<
One problem with Garp's use of modelkeys is that matches any substring- which can cause confusion. This is better accomplished through the datatype.tbl templates.
In $GARPHOME/config/datatype.tbl, check the model key that is being used for the first data set "thinned grids". I'd suggest changing this to gfsthin to avoid conflicts with any other data sets that have "gfs" in them.
In $GARPHOME/fdf/scalar and $GARPHOME/fdf/vector, link or move the "thin" directories to "gfsthin".
In $GEMTBL/config/datatype.tbl, set up a datatype GFSTHIN that locates your thinned grids.
Let me know if this helps.

We're having a problem with displaying certain model data within garp. The same data sets can be properly viewd with nmap2 and using the commandline tools.
For example, if I open garp's model cross section dialog I can choose an model (gfs thinned), select the levels (1000 -> 250) select the model date/time and a parameter (Temp_C). Garp then appears to load up the data but nothing is displayed other than the information line at the bottom of the display. Looking at the network activity I do not believe that the data is actually being read. In the terminal where ntl was started there is the following output:
Invoke ... /software/gempak/GEMPAK5.8.3a/bin/linux/garp G A R P - v2.1 starting... GEMPAK: [GDCROSS -12] No levels--check input for GDATTIM and GVCORD.
Again, we can read the same data properly with the commandline tools. This is the same with other models and other tools, such as the "Model Plan Projection", "Model Time Height" and "Model Vertical Profile". Other functions in Garp appear to be working normally.
We are running version 5.8.3a compiled on Slackware Linux (10.0, kernel 2.6.7). I did a clean build and am using a Gemenviron file from the new version so there are not any files or references left over from the previous installation.
I tried installing the binary distribution but it would not run because it needs glibc 2.3.4. Our Linux installation, which is only a little more than a year old, has glibc 2.3.2 which is only a little more than a year old.
