Pisti,

Yes, although you should redirect output to /dev/null, like this:

nohup recon-all -all -subjid bert >& /dev/null &

All output will still go to your <subj>/scripts/recon-all.log file.

You can exit the terminal window and open a new one and tail the file to confirm that things are running:

tail -n 300 -f <subj>/scripts/recon-all.log

Some users have experienced some problems using 'nohup recon-all...' on a laptop, but I don't know the details of those problems.

does anybody know if FreeSurfer can be run in combination with the unix command 'nohup' like:

 nohup recon-all -autorecon-all -subjid fs &

so that one is able to logout after beginning of the process without halting all computation ?

thanks, bye, pisti
