Thanks Bruce + Daniel. I get no error messages in the terminal when running tkmedit/tkmsurfer.
Drivers are enabled and up-to-date, and other similar software is working OK (for instance, fslview). However, I have installed freesurfer in another computer with an nvidia video card and tkmedit looks great. In this one I have an ATI Radeon HD 4670 (maybe a conflictive card, as far as I have read...) I tried mesa SW X11 and we could say I got an improvement: now the display window doesn't disappear but it is kind of transparent (I more or less see the 'whites' of the volume but those areas supposed to be black or dark grey are actually transparent --it looks pretty cool but not very useful to work with ;). Any other installation that could help? Is there anyone else experiencing this kind of problem with ATI cards? Thanks again!
