Launch SPM with ''spm [versionnumber].'' By default, if you launch spm 99 or spm 2, it will run on machines `l02-l07` under Matlab 6.5; if you use spm 5 it will run Matlab 7 on machines `l07-l13`. To launch spm on a particular machine, ssh to this machine and then type `spmlocal` or `spmlocal . [versionnumber]` where "." specifies starting directory; note spaces before and after.

The versions of SPM available at the CBU are:

Versions in fairly current use

spm 5

The latest version of SPM, with all the current patches we could get. We recommend you use this version if you are starting a study from scratch, as it has some improvements over previous versions, particularly in spatial processing. It also has a number of extra features. Run SPM5 at the CBU, with:

spm 5

at the unix prompt.

spm 2

Still widely used, and very similar to SPM5 in its basic functionality. To run SPM2 at the CBU:

spm

or

spm 2

at the unix prompt.

spm 99

The oldest of the versions of SPM still in fairly common use, with all the patches we could get. We strongly recommend you switch to a new version, particularly for batch analyses, as the SPM99 batch system is very difficult to use. Run SPM99 at the CBU, with:

spm 99

at the unix prompt.

Other very old versions of SPM - for historical comparisons only

spm96 - original

SPM96 as orinally distributed. We do not recommend you use this version of SPM, but instead use the patched version (see below).

spm96 - patched

This version is almost identical to the original version of spm96, but differs in that: 1. There have been some updates to fix little bugs. The bugs fixed are listed at the [http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/spm96.html the SPM web site 96 bug fix list]. The directory listing routine, spm_list_files, has been updated also, so that it does not crash when moving into automounted directories.

Our version includes the random effects toolkit. See the [http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/spm96.html SPM96 random effects toolkit] link for some explanation. Basically it enhances certain rarely used features of SPM96 to make random effects analyses easier. Follow the link above for some explanation of what a random effects analysis is. To get this patched version of SPM96 at the CBU, type:

spm 96

at the unix prompt.

spm 97

SPM97 is the patched version of SPM96 with the fMRI event related routines installed. Again, see the [http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/spm96.html SPM website 96 event related fMRI] link for details.To start SPM97 at the CBU, type:

spm 97

or

spm er

at the unix prompt.

spm 95

This is an older version of spm. There is little use for this for most people, but the code is useful for certain special occasions. In particular, it is much easier to see what the statistical analysis is doing in this version of the code.For SPM95, at the CBU, type:

spm 95

at the unix prompt.
