Hello,
I am configuring a Freesurfer installation for two different types of computers (headless servers and workstations). For both sets of computers we want any non-OpenGL commands that are run to first go through python scripts which load balance (these are working fine); however we have directly included the standard tkmedit* tksurfer* tkregister2* scuba* scuba2* and qdec* in the bin directory of freesurfer for the workstations. We still do not seem able to get these applications to work. Are there some dependencies, which I am missing for each of these besides tkmedit.bin etc.?
Thank You, Dan

When you say you can't get them to work, what exactly do you mean? Do you get any console error messages? Do you get nothing? Are the processes still lurking about in the process table...? What command line syntax (including arguments do you use)?
At the very least, you should get a "surfer.log" and "error.log" file in the directory from which you launch any of the graphical apps... Do these even appear?

Dan,
The GUI apps all use Tcl/Tk, and scuba2 and qdec also use Vtk and KWWidgets. All the apps have wrapper scripts which call one or more of the scripts tcl_setup, vtk_setup and kww_setup, which set paths to the libraries, prior to calling the .bin. So for example, 'tkmedit' is a wrapper script which sources $FREESURFER_HOME/bin/tcl_setup, then calls tkmedit.bin. So probably what you need to do is call those wrapper scripts (tcl_setup, etc).
