We had exactly that problem on machines running RedHat 5, but it was solved by reinstalling with the latest CentOS.

Nope, no errors when tksurfer starts, and I've tried running it with both my own data/folder and with the tutorial data/folders, and have the same problem. I don't currently have freesurfer installed on a laptop, and the only laptop I have access to is a mac (whereas I am using linux for most of my analysis). I can see what happens if I try installing it on the mac and see if it has the same problem, but I assume it's somehow specific to my linux machine if others aren't having the same problem.

Hi Katie,
can you replicate this problem on a laptop? If so, maybe you want to swing by MGH with it and we can take a look? There are no errors when tksurfer starts?

Ok, I tried to unset the FSLTCLSH variable (which is the only one that came
up when I grep TCL) to see if that allowed me to use keyboard input with
tksurfer, but it didn't work.

I really need to be able to use the keyboard with tksurfer so that I can
save label files and rgbs, etc. Is there any way I can get this fixed?
Please?
