External Email - Use Caution        

Hello JC,
My bad with the first command, try
$ cd  /usr/local/freesurfer/bin
... try the next command w/o sudo first,
$ ln -s  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/platforms  platforms
... if that works, then try running freeview again.
... if that fails with a permission denied error, then you do not have 
permission to modify anything under the freesurfer install.   You can try 
running the command again with sudo but you may need to know the sudo password, 
e.g. it may prompt you for the password,

$ sudo  ln -s  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/platforms  
platforms[sudo] password for JC: 
If the sudo command does work, then try running freeview again.
If you do not know the password, then try asking whoever setup the machine for 
the passowrd, or ask them to run the commands.
You can also try running the script that Andrew sent you.  But if the 
above “ln” command failed w/o sudo, then I think you will also need sudo 
privileges to run the script.

- R.

<freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu>Cc: <jcr...@gmail.com>OK, please 
check to see if this directory exists,$ ls 
/usr/local/freesurfer/bin/platformsIf it does exist, then please let us know 
what is there with a repply email.But I expect that it does not exist and ls 
will report there is no such platforms directory..If the directory does not 
exist, then go to the freesurfer bin directory and create a soft link to point 
to the Qt platforms subdirectory,$ sudo cd /usr/local/freesurfer/bin$ sudo ln 
-s  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/platforms  platformsIf you 
create the link, then try running freeview again.- R.On Jul 13, 2019, at 03:33,

have the following directory with the plugins libraries,$ ls 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/platformsThere should be a libqxcb.so
