you don't need to be root (although it seems like you should be able to
get a sysadmin to install them somewhere). In any case, you can change your
LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include whereever you have installed them.

Thanks a lot. Those really help. However, I don't have the root permission
to install those libraries into the required directory. So, I guess that I
should use the static version of tkmedit and tksurfer. Could you show me
where I can find them? Thanks again.
Sorry, but we don't distribute a static version any more. You'll have to
install tcl/tk 8.3.

Thanh Ngo,
Welcome to FreeSurfer :) I'm no expert but maybe I
can help.
I had the same problem (many people have) with the
libtk8.3.so and
libtcl8.3so libraries (I assume you're getting a
shared library error).
Before you try to get the static version to work,
try this:
Have you searched your computer for these files?
FreeSurfer seems to want
them to be in the /usr/lib directory. If you have
these files but they are
in a different directory, create a symbolic link to
them:
e.g., if the files are in /opt/tcltk/lib
cd /usr/lib
ln -s /opt/tcltk/lib/libtk8.3.so libtk8.3.so
ln -s /opt/tcltk/lib/libtcl8.3.so libtcl8.3.so
If you don't have these files, you should download
them (make sure you get
version 8.3.x!). If you look on the FreeSurfer
Download page, there is a
link below the table with the main downloads that
takes you to the most
up-to-date binaries. I believe these files are
posted there.
If you have newer versions of tcl/tk (e.g., 8.4 or
8.5), you need to install
the older versions as well (make sure to FORCE the
install) -- at least this
was the only way I could get it to work.
Hope this helps!
