Nick,

 Thanks for the hint. I already solved the problem.

 We are testing a Cluster-on demand, pay-per-hour-used service in US and
seems pretty good. I ran 100 recon-all in 33 hours!!!

 When I finish my tests I'll send a message to the list indicating this
service.

Pedro,

You have encountered the achilles heel of freesurfer running on a
cluster.  clusters often don't have the X-Windows libs (like libXmu)
installed, because they dont need them.  But mris_volmask is the one
binary in the recon-all stream that is built against VTK, and VTK builds
against X-Windows (at least on Linux, and our default distribution).
I'd like to eliminate this dependency, but haven't had the time.

You have three options:

 1) copy the necessary X libs to your cluster (run ldd mris_volmask.bin
to see them).

 2) or use the -nocortribbon flag to skip that step (no downstream steps
depend on the ?h.ribbon.mgz files)

 3) or build freesurfer from source, based on a VTK which is built
without an X Windows dependency.

Nick
