Not yet. There is a guy in out lab who installed Ubuntu at home but not BrainVISA. However, he will probably install Ubuntu and BrainVISA on his laptop so you will not be alone.

ok, thanks!

first step: you apparantely just need to instally python-qt3, and then, the binary distribution seems to work (at least the main brainvisa interface starts... I havn't tried to run anything yet)

[Yann Cointepas]

We provide Python and Qt in the binary package because it is often impossible to use system Qt (some Linux distribution have Qt compilation options that change the library, there are several Qt or libstdc++ versions on various distributions, etc).

I would do another minimal test to check possible OpenGL problems. Start Anatomist and open an empty window (Axial, Coronal, Sagittal or 3D). If it does not work it probably means that there is a problem with your graphic card (or its driver).

ok, this seems to work!
onto the next problem (setting up the database)... reading on this at the moment!

["i"]

I just installed Anatomist/BrainVISA on an ubuntu based distribution (linux mint KDE). All is ok with anatomist, but not with brainvisa.
When i try to launch brainvisa via Terminal, i have this message :

sed: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I checked the presence of libc6 and can't find any solution.

Any ideas ?

Thanks.
