Developments to the imaging computing system

2007/12/12 Added FSL 4.0.1

To use, type

2007/12/10 Tweaked load display

The load displayed when typing showload, or on launching SPM or MEG software was a bit verbose. I trimmed it. [RC]

2007/12/05 Linux server OS version upgrade

Major upgrade. Linux servers l08-l21 upgraded to RedHat Enterprise Linux 4, and added to pool of machines used by default to run SPM 5 (under Matlab 7.3) and MEG.

Thanks very much to Rob Anthony for handling this so smoothly!

    • touch ~/.loadshare/verbose_less

2007/11/27 MEG wrapper update

All previous Elekta commands and many new ones (e.g., maxave, maxfilter) are now called through a new wrapper. All arguments are passed straight along to the command, which will be launched on an appropriate machine. Start a new xterm to bring them into path. [RC]
