GUI problem on Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit

Hi,

I recently downloaded a copy of mne for use on my linux machine.
Unfortunately, the GUI seems to be broken - the buttons are a ridiculous
size. I have used MNE before and so I know that something is wrong with
this. I have attached a screenshot of the problem. This is mne_browse_raw.
Did I mess up the installation somehow? Is this a common problem?

Thank you,

Nicole

Hi Nicole,

You have not set up the environment variables correctly. Did you follow the instructions in Manual section 2.4? This changed in MNE version 2.7

Best,
Matti

Hi,

I ran mne_setup_sh and mne_setup if that is what you are asking. Was there
something else I needed to run?

Thanks!

Hi,

I ran mne_setup_sh and mne_setup if that is what you are asking. Was there something else I needed to run?

How can it be both? mne_setup_sh is for the posix (bourne, bash) shell and mne_setup for csh/tcsh?

You need to set the MNE_ROOT and MATLAB_ROOT environment variables correctly.

For posix/bourne/bash shells:

export MNE_ROOT=<MNE_directory>
export MATLAB_ROOT=<Matlab_directory>
. $MNE_ROOT/bin/mne_setup_sh

(Note the dot in the beginning)

For csh/tcsh

setenv MNE_ROOT <MNE_directory>
setenv MATLAB_ROOT <Matlab_directory>
source $MNE_ROOT/bin/mne_setup

If your setup is correct, mne_browse_raw should start just by saying

mne_browse_raw

I was missing the dot! Thank you very much and sorry for the bother
