Hi Jon, It looks like the matlab path is not set on your machine. Can you set the $PATH environment variable to include the path to the matlab functions as well? You can try to launch the command "getmatlab", if you get the answer that matlab is not installed, it means that the $PATH environment variable is not properly set. You can also look on the mailing list, there are a few explanations about this path issue, among which the following one: http://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg25017.html
Let me know if you don't find how to make it work.
