You will need to install libexpat to make v4.0.4 work on rh9. Or, if you have a rhel4 or later variant, the better option is to install the freesurfer centos4 distribution.
The next release of freesurfer for rh9 will not have the libexpat shared lib dependency.
What are the qdec issues that you have been having? The only change to qdec after v4.0.1 is the ability to load and save project files.

Hi folks I'm having a hard time figuring out what this libexpat files is and what to do about it. I'm installing FS4.0.4 on a Linux RH9 machine. We've been running 4.0.1 just fine, but are hoping this build will fix some qdec issues.
After install, this error message comes up regardless of what component we are trying to run (tksurfer, qdec, tkmedit, etc). Any thoughts?
