 Hi all. I'm using IGV v2.3.14 on a 64-bit machine under Ubuntu 14.04. It's the IGV version from the Ubuntu repo. I'm trying to load a conservation track for human chromosome 22 I downloaded from UCSC but when I do it IGV freezes with no error messages. Since I'm only interested in one gene I also took only the 38898 lines I need from the .wig file and convert this reduced .wig to .tdf using igvtools. The .tdf file is now 192 Kb big. However, the problem remains. Any ideas, please? Thanks!

Hi,

Sorry but we can't offer much support for that version, it is almost 3 years old.  If possible please download and use the latest version from our downloads page.   We have no control over the Ubuntu repository.
