External Email - Use Caution
Hello Justina, We need to know what your setup is on Windows for running Linux in order to help with running freeview. It reads like you are not using VirtualBox to run the Linux Ubuntu OS, I do not have VirtualBox installed ... So it’s not clear to me how you are currently running Ubuntu Linux on your Windows machine in order to run freeview or other freesurfer commands. Are you running Ubuntu linux with the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)? Maybe you are connecting remotely to a linux machine via VNC or the like from your Windows machine ?
If you don’t mind running freesurfer 7.2.0 (instead of the newest 7.3.2 release), there is a smaller version of the VM to download from https://secure-web.cisco.com/1YWO9PWAWb2dUg45HhJ8-Uf5BVRKini-Plt5R0ZzrEI56U7...; with setup instructions under that link. But you would still need to download and install VirtualBox on your Windows machine and then download and install the Freesurfer Software. - R.

My issue at hand is that freeview does not show any images, despite changing the window levels (contrast and brightness). Using the command freeview -v works, and I am able to run it smoothly. When I try to open an mgz file, it runs fine, but I am unable to see anything. I do not have VirtualBox installed and tried to take this advice from previous but I ran across the problem of downloading the course Virtual Machine. I do think that I do not need to download the VirtualBox and can continue using Ubuntu on Windows.What could be the issue with this? Should I be downloading the Virtual machine to run Freeview?Thank you so much for your time and I hope that my issue is not too big of a problem to solve.Sincerely,Justina_______________________________________________Freesurfer mailing listFreesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.eduhttps://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer
