Hi, Does anyone have any advice for compiling freesurfer on Linux powerPC architectures?
I've managed to compile a 64-bit version of freesurfer on Linux PowerPC, and I'd be happy to post the documentation for the compile process I used - if I could be sure it would build usable binaries :-( So far, the compiled binaries run in to some fairly basic problems with opening DICOM files. Here's an example using mri_probedicom with the debugging cranked up, trying to open a file that opens fine using the precompiled x86 mri_probedicom binary:
# mri_probedicom --i /tmp/s003/E16002S003I00001.dcm
