Thanks for your reply Yaniv! That is how I initially tried loading the NIFTI volumes (via the GUI, File|Load), but in the meantime I discovered what the problem was: there were spaces in the name of the folder containing the image, and apparently non-Windows OSs such as Xubuntu don't deal well with that!
For future reference, as soon as you eliminate spaces - as well as possibly other'forbidden' characters from the file/folder name, FreeView will load the image with no problems.

Hi Tudor,
I am not very experienced with Freeview, but did you try typing "freeview" in the command line and using the File->Load Volume… from the GUI? If that doesn't work maybe you can give me the exact command you used.
Hope I could help. Regards, Yaniv On 06/12/2012, at 1:47 AM, Tudor Popescu tudor3@gmail.com wrote:
Hi everyone,
I tried opening a NIFTI (.nii.gz) image in freeview, but it gives me
repeated "Failed to load <image name>" errors.
That same image loads fine in FSLview, but even when trying with other
NIFTI images, I get the same error.
The default image
(/home/virtualuser/freesurfer/subjects/bert/mri/brainmask.mgz) opens fine in freeview.
I use FreeSurfer v5.1.0 on Xubuntu 9.10, running through VirtualBox on
WinXP.
Many thanks for any help! Tudor _______________________________________________ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer
