[FieldTrip] non-existent mat in BEM headmodel

[Ricardo Moura]

Hi Jörn,
thank you very much for your response!
I checked the segmentation and everything seems to be ok (as far as I can
say... No error messages were shown during the processing and I checked the
generated objects and plots).

But I had a strange error while preparing the head model. Somehow the
command cannot find the dipoli files, even thought they are really where
they should be. And the second message
("/tmp/tp2619f3f3_574d_478a_bfbb_01193b4f8e0c.ama'") I really have no clue
of what it means.

And I am running this command on a ubuntu 12.04 32-bit.

Do you have any idea of how I can solve it?

Thanks once again,Best,
Ricardo
