Vish,
I think there might be two problems here. The first, the GLX error, is likely due to the video driver not supporting GLX (aka OpenGL X-Windows extensions). Does this error appear when running directly from the machine, or is this a remote connection?
The 'wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64' error would occur is the wrong machine architecture is used. Are you certain your machine is 64bits? To check, you should type this:
uname -m
and see:
x86_64
On the distribution site:
ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist
the 32bit FC5 tksurfer stuff is:
tksurfer_fc5.gz
and the 64bit FC5 stuff is:
tksurfer_fc5_x86_64.gz
