In the hope that someone recognises the error as described in the attached email... (Sorry for the repost but I haven't found a solution yet and I'm quite sure someone will recognise it)

Dear Freesurfer community,
I have a display problem that affects especially tkmedit and tksurfer. We run freesurfer ( freesurfer-Linux-centos4_x86_64-stable-pub-v5.0.0) on a remote unix server and use Exceed (v. 14.0.0.376) to port the display to a local (windows) computer. At first we got a openGL error stating that OpenGL was not supported when calling e.g. tksurfer. Now we have installed Exceed 3D to support OpenGL it seems to continue beyond the previous error message but comes up with a different one (see snippet)
<snippet> subject is js hemi is rh surface is pial surfer: current subjects dir: /home/cris/freesurfer/subjects surfer: not in "scripts" dir ==> using cwd for session root surfer: session root data dir ($session) set to: surfer: /home/cris Reading image info (/home/cris/freesurfer/subjects/js) Reading /home/cris/freesurfer/subjects/js/mri/orig.mgz surfer: Reading header info from /home/cris/freesurfer/subjects/js/mri/orig.mgz fsurfer: vertices=156376, faces=312748 surfer: single buffered window surfer: tkoInitWindow(js) Window type not found! surfer: failed, trying double buffered window Window type not found! surfer: failed, no suitable display found <end snippet>
Any ideas?
Note that other programs that do not use OpenGL seem to run fine (i.e. fslview and gedit)
