I recently upgraded my fedora to fedora core 3
I am getting the following error when I try to use tksurf
/user/freesurfer/bin/Linux/tksurfer: error while loading shared libraries: libtk8.3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
How do I fix this
First, this is my first post to the list, so I'll use the occasion to send some greets from Norway: Hi, all!
Now, to the problem at hand.
I don't have a fedora core install available, so I won't be able to tell the specifics, but generally, this is how I solved it for fc2, and I expect it to work with fc3, as well:
1. Ask your browser of choice to get these files from the [1]Tk/Tcl project:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/tcl/tcl-8.3.2-1.i386.rpm?download http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/tcl/tk-8.3.2-1.i386.rpm?download
2. Install them by issuing the following command (as root):
# rpm -i {tcl,tk}-8.3.2-1.i386.rpm
3. At this point, I am a bit unsure whether or not the libraries are correctly named, but have a go at (still as root):
# ldconfig
And then try to run freesurfer the way you usually do.
[1]: These files are directly from the tcl development site at tcl.sf.net.
Hope this helps.
