Well, this reply is a day late and then some.. but it's basically along the same lines as Rudolph had to say previously.
I just setup Freesurfer on an Ubuntu installation. I get best results as follows:
1) Disable/remove the Compiz / Wobbly Windows stuff if you installed that. 2) System -> Prefs -> Appearance -> Visual Effects -> None
It's not quite as aesthetically pleasing, but this let me move around the 'MEDIT' window when running tkmedit without having to click in the window to get the image to come up again, etc.

Dear all,
I have installed the version 4.1.0 (centos x86_64) on Ubuntu 8.04 and
tried
the test commands for tkmedit and tksurfer as in "Testing your FreeSurfer installation. However, the graphics "flashed" when I typed the command
and
then disappeared. There was no error message on the terminal. The
graphics
showed up very briefly when I cricked on some places on the screen where the graphics flashed before. I also tried the centos4 32 bit version and the red hat 9 version, but ended up with the same problem.
Is anyone having the similar problem?
Are you running any compiz desktop effects (wobbly windows, fade animations, etc.)? I've had similar problems with Ubuntu 8.04 and FreeSurfer tools if compiz effects were activated. If they are active, try turning them off...
