Hi all, This is a bug that has baffled me for almost a year now, so today I decided to just attend to it exclusively. I have never understood why, exactly, the anecdotal and illogical fix for the sliver-of-the-brain issue seems to be to install an NVidia graphics card in the afflicted ser

hi Sid, This should be done on the server side - where you are processing the data. For example, I have a Dell PowerEdge 1950 that is running 64-bit Debian Gnu/Linux and has Freesurfer/fsfast installed. I log into it from my Mac, which is running os x. So I needed to add those libraries

It's possible that you are running a Debian-based distro and just don't have libtiff.so.3; but you probably have libtiff.so.4, so you can create a symlink so that libtiff.so.3 points to libtiff.so.4. I have to do this In Debian "etch" and later mjp On Nov 26, 2008, at 4:26 PM, "Siddharth

Hi Dhruman, I had this problem with a Debian (Etch) system with an ATI card, and the way I got it to work was to install the fglrx driver for the ATI card. I also was missing a bunch of OpenGL stuff, too, but I think the driver was the main issue. I'm unfamiliar with CentOS but these inst

Hi Pedro, What do you see if you run the following command: ldd /usr/lib/libXmu.so.6 Once you fix the problem, if you are running FreeSurfer 4, I *think* you can re-run recon-all with the -make flag and it will just do the processing that got missed. mjp On Mar 22, 2008, at 9:51 PM, Ped

libtiff.so.3 is typically provided by the ia32-libs package in Ubuntu and Debian (and presumably any other Debian-derived distros) So you can install using the following command: sudo aptitude install ia32-libs I'm not sure which binary is doing the complaining, I don't see anything in $FRE

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 si

Hi all, FYI, this same problem has been bugging me for several months. Most ATI chipsets have a nice driver installer bundle that, once installed, will let you run tksurfer without a problem. However, this particular chipset, the ES1000, which is the chipset on Dell PowerEdge servers, is
