Sebastian,
Unfortunately, we do not have a SuSE Linux x86_64 platform upon which to test our x86_64 distribution, so you are on your own here. We think the centos4_x86_64 distribution should work for you though. Please give it a try and let us know how it works!
The upcoming Mac OS X release will run on both Panther as well as Tiger. There is a presently a 'dev' release available on the distribution site, called freesurfer-Darwin-tiger-full.dmg, that should install and work on panther.

Freesurfer community,
For those who wish to install a 'development' release of Freesurfer on Linux RedHat 9, CentOS 4 or CentOS 4 x86_64 platforms, distribution files are now posted at:
http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/?M=D
On this distribution site, a README is available:
freesurfer-Linux-platform-dev20050905-full.README.txt
The new distributions include:
freesurfer-Linux-rh9-dev20050905-full.tar.gz
freesurfer-Linux-centos4-dev20050905-full.tar.gz
freesurfer-Linux-centos4_x86_64-dev20050905-full.tar.gz
In Bremen we are using SuSE Linux 9.3 x86_64, do you think it will be possible for you to supply a version running on that system as well. Otherwise I will try to make the centos4 x86_64 work, but it would be much nicer to have a matching version to the system, even though differences between redhat and suse should be really small. Anyway thanks for supplying such a capable system as freesurfer/fs-fast to the comunity. On a related note, will the new version alsao run on macosx 10.3 aka panther or will it reqire tiger (10.4)?
Ahoi Sebastian
The 'dev' release contains all the functionality of the upcoming 'stable' release, but has not been fully tested, particularly in regards to installation issues.
This 'dev' release is intended for those who wish to attempt an installation on their Linux platform, and are willing to give feedback on possible installation problems.
This 'dev' release contains most of the libraries that Freesurfer requires: the MINC toolkit, Tcl/Tk/Tix and BLT libraries, GSL and Qt, as well as sample MRI data.
The release may be installed in any directory.
A Mac OS X 'dev' build is not available just yet.
