If you have not already done so, I would try installing and using the newest version of the Matlab runtime environment that the 7.4.1 release was tested with, i.e. R2019b.  Once you have set $FREESURFER_HOME, then run the fs_install_mcr script included with the freesurfer distribution .... $ export FREESURFER_HOME=<your install path> $ cd $FREESURFER_HOME/bin $ sudo FREESURFER_HOME=$FREESURFER_HOME  ./fs_install_mcr  R2019b … answer y to any installer questions ... Then I think it should work to find the Matlab libraries by at least start off with setting, $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$FREESURFER_HOME/MCRv97/bin/glnxa64 Please make sure you have otherwise removed from your environment and references to the previous Matlab R2022b setup. - R.

        External Email - Use Caution        Hi FreeSurfer Team,I'm trying to run recon-all on an MRI nii.gz file and I believe most of the command runs as the error doesn't happen until several hours in, however once matlab is initiated I consistently get the following output:MATLAB is selecting SOFTWARE OPENGL rendering.                            < M A T L A B (R) >                  Copyright 1984-2022 The MathWorks, Inc.                  R2022b (9.13.0.2049777) 64-bit (glnxa64)                              August 24, 2022Warning: Function iscolumn has the same name as a MATLAB builtin.
