Nick,

Hi, I found what might the source of the problem and posted new versions
of mri_convert and tkmedit.bin to this directory:

ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/freesurfer/misc/linux-centos6_x86_64/

before trying the new mri_convert though, can you try the following?

cd <some writable directory>
mri_convert $FREESURFER_HOME/subjects/bert/mri/T1.mgz T1.mgz

I'm guessing it will segfault or print the license problem.

Now copy the new mri_convert (from the ftp link above) to the
freesurfer/bin directory and try again.  It should work.  You can then
also try the new tkmedit.bin.  Remember to copy the tkmedit.bin to the
freesurfer/tktools directory and leave freesurfer/bin/tkmedit untouched
(its a wrapper-script that sets-up paths to the tcl/tk/tix/blt libs, so
tkmedit.bin cannot be run directly)

Thanks,

Nick
