Hello Xue, Via what method are you remotely accessing the Linux cluster? (VNC, cygwin, etc) I am not sure if it's your X client or the X server, but one of them, or maybe both, possibly lack support for OpenGL.
If you aren't already using a VNC system that there I would try that option first. If you are using VNC and not having any luck, than another potential solution is try downloading and install Xming from this page: http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes. (Try using the version with the PuTTY SSH Client). Xming is a X server for Windows and all OpenGL rendering will be performed on your local machine, which could potentially be quite slow, but may be adequate for your needs. Hope this helps. -Zeke On 03/20/2013 11:17 PM, Xue Zhang wrote: > dear freesurfer experts, > I tried to install freesurfer in a remote linux cluster, when I completed > the installation, and began to run the freesurfer gui use my own windows PC, > the command line showed erro belowing information : > > > [wanglhlab@node01 freesurfer]$ tkmedit bert orig.mgz > GLUT: Fatal Error in tkmedit.bin: OpenGL GLX extension not supported by > display: localhost:11.0 > > > could anyone tell me the reason why my installation failed?
