AFNI Message Board

Dear AFNI users-

We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:

https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov

Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.

The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.

Sincerely, AFNI HQ

We've recently encountered the error message "fail to bind surface" when running SUMA remotely on a mac OS X platform.
So you'd run this:
./suma
and get:
suma:
No input specified, loading some toy surfaces...
Use '.' and ',' to cycle between them.
See suma -help for assistance.

failed to bind to surface

The error is not from SUMA. And the fix, according to the tip found here:
[lists.apple.com] , involves setting the env parameter LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 on the remote server. In the .cshrc on the remote machine, add:
if ( $?SSH_TTY ) then
setenv LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT 1
endif

cheers,
ziad
