Compiling the mex files is most likely only necessary if you want to run older versions of SPM with newer hardware and operating systems. However, I compile SPM every time we do a major operating system upgrade (linux). It only takes a few moments and it insures that all the mex files are compiled using the current Matlab and local libraries. In your case you need to setup mex. See http://www.mathworks.com/support/tech-notes/1600/1605.html For instructions. Dennis On Wed, Nov 23, 2011 at 4:19 AM, S.F.W.
