Hello Ina,
Ive only seen that error when people do Xforwarding from a macOS machine to a linux machine and try to open GUI applications. As far as I know their is no way to resolve this issue and I simply tell people Xforwarding from macOS to Linux and opening freesurfer GUI applications is not supported. The easist fix would be to download the mac version of freesurfer and install locally:

Hi,
I’m trying to access Freesurfer on my Mac but have been unable to do so. It appears that I’m sourcing Freesurfer through nmr-stable6-env but an error message keeps showing up when I type in “freeview”. I’ve also tried doing the Freesurfer tutorials online but the same error message appears.
Setting up environment for FreeSurfer/FS-FAST (and FSL)
FREESURFER_HOME /usr/local/freesurfer/stable6
FSFAST_HOME /usr/local/freesurfer/stable6/fsfast
FSF_OUTPUT_FORMAT nii.gz
SUBJECTS_DIR /space/sake/3/users/inverse/subjects
MNI_DIR /usr/local/freesurfer/stable6/mni
FSL_DIR /usr/pubsw/packages/fsl/current
[scheherazade:~] (nmr-stable6-env) freeview
X Error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) 2
Extension: 149 (Uknown extension)
Minor opcode: 3 (Unknown request)

Any thoughts on how to fix this?
Many thanks,
Ina
