Hi,

&nbsp;

I’d like to get the Psychtoolbox installed on an older Mac Pro (model 1,1 made in 2006), and I’ve decided to give Ubuntu a try. Because the machine is so old I can’t install a 64-bit Ubuntu (as far as I can tell), and because Matlab stopped supporting 32-bit Linux with R2012a which was made before Ubuntu 12.04, I installed Ubuntu 10.04. So far, so good – Ubuntu installed, and Matlab installed ok. Now I’m trying to add the Psychtoolbox using Neurodebian. I get an error message stating that libglew 1.6 is required, but cannot be installed. I assume that issue has to do with using Ubuntu 10.04 and not the newer version? How do I work around it? Remove all of the Neurodebian stuff and start over with the installation, or is there a different option?

&nbsp;

Thanks,

Kristina Nielsen
