Brains2 Tree Source Code

Darkphas De Lone — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 1:08:27 GMT

How & where I can get the source code of the version 2 distributed in binary form in NITRC site?
I found Brains2 SVN Tree in IOWA pages but it asks for password which I haven't found even a clue about it.

Hi,

I have had success with installing the brains2 64 bit rpm on a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit.
(Similar may work with 32 bit versions, I have not tested, worth a shot)
Here are the steps I took:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install alien
wget http://www.nitrc.org/frs/download.php/1201/brains2-ExternalReleaseRedHatEnterpriseClient5.4-20091015-163633.x86_64.rpm
sudo alien --scripts -i brains2-ExternalReleaseRedHatEnterpriseClient5.4-20091015-163633.x86_64.rpm
sudo echo "export PATH=$PATH:/opt/brains2/bin" >> /etc/profile

Windows is no longer supported. The windows cygwin version was not stable enough and required too much developer time to maintain (and we have no funding support for it).

Hallo,

the probleme was described.
I solved this by new installing centOS, and than i use the vesa graphic driver without an widescreen monitor.
The nvidia-driver changes some librarys. If you then try to remove the nvidia driver,this is not completely done. Then there are conflicts with the yum package manager. I couldn't solve this.
So i have to reinstall the computer.

Now the thread could be closed.

Hello,

i have an centos 5 Installtion with Kernel 2.6.18-128.1.10el5, x86_64
The graficcard is an NVidia Quadro NVS 290.
The display is a fuitsu -siemens scaloview X22W,
the standard resolution is 1680 * 1050.
Could this combination run with brains2?
The installation which i made before is similar but there was a Problem with the proprietary graficcard driver from nvidia, i solved the problem so, that i use the vesa driver. This works fine. But now the wished resolution isn't supported by the vesa driver.
Have anyone an suggestion?

I have an error message: Unable to open GLX extension..., too.

Thank you.

Michael

If you download the binaries they've been built using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, and haven't been tested elsewhere. The tarball of binary files will probably work on some distros, but not all, because they depend on system libraries that may not have the same versions.

A binary build should be no trouble on any modern linux distribution; all code needed to build is included in the source tarball.

Hello,

On the main page (https://mri.radiology.uiowa.edu/software.html) it mentions that BRAINS2 is available for windows. I could not find the installation file on the downloads page. Can you please help?

Cheers,
Steve

Hi, we have the tarball version for RHEL5 running here on an i386 Slackware system, glibc 2.5 and kernel 2.6.21. You will find installation easiest if you can drop Brains into /opt
