this is a known bug. We'll have a fix soon. You can change the mri_fill call in recon-all to use aseg.auto.mgz as a quick fix.

Hello, Just a brief addendum: Our previous experience with -autorecon2 has been primarily with v3.0.5 (and thus v3.0.5 asegs, not 4.0.1 asegs as Matt initially indicated) where we have never encountered this "nbrs" error during mri_fill. We have just started processing some new brains through -autorecon2 using v4.0.1, and 2 of 12 brains so far have already had this error. We are wondering if the problem might be because voxels now labelled as callosum under v4.0.1 are not considered as candidates for identifying lh and rh wm neighbors...?

Dear FreeSurfer folks,
We recently had an error occur while processing two brains in recon2. We are using FreeSurfer version 4.0.1 for these subjects. The error message in both cases mentions that mri_fill could not find points where lh and rh wm were "nbrs" (I assume this is short for neighbors). Upon inspecting the aseg.mgz files for both brains, I found that, while there were one or two spots in each brain where lh and rh wm voxels did touch, it was much less than in other version 4.0.1 asegs that we have processed and inspected. In other words, there were plenty of places where the connection between the l and r wm was mediated by the corpus callosum label, but almost none where the wm were direct neighbors. Is there any way known for fixing this problem? Could it be related to the new corpus callosum label in the version 4 segmentation which was not present in earlier versions? Thanks in advance for any help anybody might be able to lend.
Here is the end of the error message:
