Hi Martin, Thanks for the cope-snippet. A small C program based on that revealed that it is a problem with popen (gzip is installed and working properly, and exchanging gzip with other programs produced the same error). Error code 38 (ENOSYS) means Function not implemented. So the problem

Hi Carolina I'll leave the 2nd question for Doug and Nick. The first one, I think you mean ventral DC, which is short for ventral diencephalon. It's a grab bag of a bunch of stuff that we can't resolve. You would need to check with someone like Dave Kennedy (ccd) to get the exact description.

mris_volume returns the volume interior to the entire surface (whichever surface is provided as input), which in the case of Xh.white as input will include subcortical gray matter, ventricles, etc. mris_wm_volume subtracts out the volume of non-wm voxels based on the aseg. Here is the usage

I see. We usually have 2mm isotropic diffusion voxels and an order of magnitude fewer voxels in the mask. So the high memory requirement here has to do with the high resolution of your data. These bedpost output files that it's trying to read in have 50 frames each, so you have to multiply
