Hi, We're really stuck on this one... We are running a linux kernel 2.4.26 debian 3.0 (woody). We've installed the freesurfer and the packaged MINC tools in the apporpriate directories and set the appropriate environment variables. We can't get the MNI tools to work through freesurfer, and only some limited MINC tools work if we try to run them on their own (eg., we can use MINC display, but can't do anyting with the images). It seems like there are some libraries missing (see below). Can you tell us why the MINC tools that came packaged with fressurfer aren't working? Is there something else that needs to be installed? If I try to run mri_convert from the GUI after checking the MNI Linear Register option in expert preferences, I get a message saying MNI align not yet implemented. If I run segment_subject I get :
segment_subject 190 cp: cannot stat `/data/flanders/work/alex/freesurfer/subjects/scripts/brain.dat' : No such file or directory /data/flanders/work/alex/freesurfer/subjects/190/scripts /data/flanders/work/ale x/freesurfer/subjects registering 190 mri_convert orig orig/orig.mnc reading from orig...

Any help would be much appreciated!!! Thanks, Alex
