Hi Roland,

Try going to your home directory and doing this:

rm -rf .qt

See if this makes a difference.

You're not the first to report something like this, but I'm not sure it's the same problem exactly. Veronica Smith reported segmentation faults when launching Caret (before trying to open a volume file, I think) when logged in either as herself or as a newly created user. When running as root, no problems.

In your case, was the other user root, or a completely different user? When Veronica created a new user, the idea was to get rid of any environment baggage that might be causing the wrong libraries to load, but it crashed for this new user, too.

Is there any difference in users' shells (e.g., tcsh vs bash)?

If using tcsh shell, could you copy your .cshrc to cshrc (same filename but without the leading .) and the upload it here:

If using bash shell, could you copy your .bash_profile to bash_profile and the upload it there.

Hi,

I have a strange problem with version 5.4 and 5.5 (not with 5.3) which I cannot work out and would like an educated guess.

I am running caret on debian (sarge with updates). And have this problem only as a certain user (unfortunately my own account). Opening "caret -debug" -> Open Data File -> choose a analyze or nifti anatomical volume (e.g. 1 subj canonical of spm5) -> Create Spec File "No"
caret dies:
pc53469:~> setenv LC_ALL C && /misc/spm/bin/caret5.5 -debug
Set the environment variable CARET_DEBUG for debugging information.

The error it qt related but why only for certain users?

More Info:
As another user this works. I have deleted my .caret5_preferences -> same result. Another computer with almost identical configuration but different graphics card-> same r.
slogin localhost vs. slogin [EMAIL PROTECTED] -> same results
caret 5.4 -> same results
kde vs. gnome -> guess what same results

caret 5.3 works.
I unpack the caret versions into one directory and start them with a script:
#!/bin/sh
export CARET_HOME=/misc/spm/caret-5.3
export PATH=$CARET_HOME/bin:$PATH
caret5 $*


I'd love some ideas. Please,

Roland
