External Email - Use Caution        

Hey Freesurfer team,

  I'm working on running Tracula, and have been running into segmentation
fault issues.  We have consistently been running into segmentation fault
issues. * The data we are working with comes from children*, and I'm
concerned that differences in MRI image brightness and mapping between
adult and children's brains may be throwing Tracula off.  In many cases the
typical pathlist of files ( lh.cst_AS, rh.cst_AS, etc) are not fully
populated in the bedp step.  We have therefore started submitting the job
with the set pathlist and set ncpts to only point to files which are
generated during the bedp step.  Nonetheless, we are still getting
segmentation fault errors during the final path step.  I'm using freesurfer
version 6.0.0-2beb96c, but I'm not sure what version of Tracula I'm using.
This is a log of the error:

The Freesurfer help I've looked at previous suggested that it could be a
memory error, but we're using a remote drive that has lots of disk space
and 26 GB RAM, so I doubt that's it.  Checked the LANG, we are using
en_US.UTF-8.  I've run this on at least 8 different patients so far, and
only one of them has not had this kind of error.  Some of the different
patients have different numbers of the normal path files exported into
/dlabel/diff/, so it seems like there is patient-to-patient variability in
how well the bedp phase is able to map things out.

Thanks for your help!
