Hi Matthew,
This is the typical symptom of either not having the right OpenGL
libraries and/or not having a driver that supports the 3d stuff. That
particular chip (ES1000) seems to be an orphan as far as Linux support
goes - I haven't found a driver installation package on the ATI/AMD
site that purports to support it. I'd be interested in hearing which
linux distro you are using and which flavor radeon driver you're using.
Is this a Dell PowerEdge server? I have a bunch of them that I can't
run tksurfer on for the same reason. So far I've been using a
workstation that has an Nvidia card, which works properly with the
NVidia proprietary driver installed.

Hi all,
I’m having trouble using freesurfer’s tksurfer program (I only get a
sliver of the brain). Here is the error info I get:

The driver info (from /etc/X11/xorg.conf) is:
Section "Device"
BoardName "ES1000 515E"
BusID "14:13:0"
Driver "radeon"
Identifier "Device[0]"
Option "GARTSize" "32"
Option "usevnc" "yes"
Section "DRI"
Group "video"
Mode 0660
EndSection
I’m have an onboard ATI ES1000 515E graphics chip.
Any ideas??
