i needed a new harddrive and installed a new system (10.04 - previously 8.04) on it.one of the things i wanted to install is matlab, however the installer doesn't do anything. I used the same iso image before on 8.04 and the install went smoothly.i cant even get it to display the options.so i untared all matlab related files out of my 8.04 backup.can i just copy those files to the right places in my new system? guess not,but maybe there aren't that many things to modify.
I recently shifted from windows to Linux(Ubuntu). I need to install Matlab now. I have a windows version matlab software. How to install it in Ubuntu. Can install it using Wine?
I am not being able to install KMPlayer and Matlab software on my system(red hat lnx 5),a message appears 'no thread found', please suggest me how to install them
I am very new to linux. I just got the dual boot working a couple of days ago. Now I downloaded MATLAB (2009b) from my university website. It came in a zip file...well I have no clue how to install it. I looked at the instruction manual, it doesn't really explain much.
I have an ISO file of MATLAB and I want to extract it to be able to run the installer. I'm not the admin of the computer and there is no 7-zip or file-roller. It has isoinfo but I don't how to use it to extract the whole ISO file and apparently I cannot mount the ISO too. way to extract the iso file?
so here's my problem. I am trying to install windows xp on my computer in virtual machine so i can watch netflix on my computer. The disk will not start up, if I restart and try to boot from load i just sits there and says boot from cd. The disk drive plays music cd's fine, so i dont really know what the issue is.
I dont know that much aboutut ubuntu. a tech friend put it on hard drive he gave me after mine crashed. also i should ad that i took the disk to someone else's house that haswidnows installed and the disk worked just fine, so its not a disk problem
I'm having a really annoying problem with matlab and I've finally resolved to fix it. I just can't paste in matlab at all. I can copy and cut, just not paste.
I have installed latest MATLAB in Ubuntu 10.04.1. I gave the installation directory as /home/Matlab. Now how do I start the MATLAB? Any executable anywhere?
I am trying to install Matlab in 9.10 x86, but the installer gives me the following. I've tried as sudo, then with "install -glnx86", but it always gives me these lines.
Code: ibo@ibo-laptop:~/Desktop/MatLab R2010b [UNIX]$ ./install dirname: missing operand Try `dirname --help' for more information.
Attempt to fix the problem and try again. If X is not available or 'xsetup' cannot be made to work then try the terminal version of 'install' using the command:
I'm suddenly having an odd problem after running Matlab successfully on my 10.10 system for a while.When I try to open Matlab now with
Code: matlab -glnx86 -desktop matlab only opens in console mode and doesn't load the jvm desktop. It doesn't report any errors. The command Code: version('-java'); gives no response.
If I try to run a command in the console such as plot, I get the following warning: Code: Warning: This functionality is no longer supported under the -nojvm startup option So, matlab is somehow starting with the -nojvm option even though I'm explicitly telling it not to with the -desktop flag. I don't know how this has suddenly changed today. When I first set Matlab up on Maverick a few weeks ago I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB to get the java stuff working properly. Does anyone have ideas on where -nojvm might be implicitly set or log files I can access to give me more info on why this might be happening?
I don't know why but when I put the installation dvd ib the dvd drive Ubuntu doesn't seem to recognize it at all. How am I supposed to install it? I know my DVD drive is working fine. It recognizes other dvds. But what's happening here?
I am trying to install matlab onto my personal laptop. When I start to download I get a file "download_agent" I have updated my java to the most recent edition and when I run "javaws download_agent" I get this error :

I have a Dell Studio 1749 and am having problems installing MATLAB on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala. After putting in the DVD, I start the installation script: Code: /media/cdrom/install_unix.sh and I get the message:

I have installed matlab 7.9 in ubuntu 9.10. I tried to launch it on the desktop using launcher. But as I double click on it it flashes but its not opening. After seeing previous posts somewhere it is given that matlab-desktop should be used. But I am not clear where to use it. How to create a desktop icon for matlab. It got solved by adding -desktop at the end of command.
Cannot write to preference file "matlab.prf" in "/home/jiangmi/.matlab/R2010a".Check file permissions.every time i run matlab by typing matlab in the terminal,i see this error messagei can run some m files, but i can not use ctrl+A to copy, etc.when i view the permission, i find below:
jiangmi@jiangmi-laptop:~/.matlab/R2010a$ ls -rl total 1368 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1265183 2010-06-05 20:04 toolbox_cache-7.10.0-2356054188-glnx86.xml
I am new in ubuntu 10.4 and want to install matlab 2009a on it. but the problem is that for the first time i use linux and ubuntu. if there is any way without using the terminal.
I have installed Matlab into /opt/matlab and the file to run the program is located in /opt/matlab/bin and is called matlab. I created a file:
#! /bin/bash /opt/matlab/bin/matlab and placed it in /usr/bin.
From there, I can run matlab by typing 'matlab' in a Terminal window. My problem is that I created a link in my start menu with the command 'matlab' but all I get is the splash screen for 5-10 secs then the program crashes out. However, when I run it from a Terminal, it loads up just fine.
I have never installed anything on Ubuntu from files, and I do not know how to do it. There are have been internet pages I have visited, but each one tells you to do it in a different method, and each one is more complicated that the last. So, I was wondering if anyone knows the simplest way of installing Matlab -
I have downloaded iso image of matlab provided by my school. As I mount the image using gmount, I saw number of files. One of the file name is 'install'. I imagine this is the file which will initiate the installation process, but don't know how to use it. Do I have to go to the mount folder in terminal and type sude install ?
I'm having troubles with ubuntu Natty."Randomly" I'm thrown out back to the log-in page; I saw some threads online talking about xserver crashes but I didn't find any solution.I noticed it happens more often (but not always) when I use this matlab code to delete all the matlab figures.
Matlab code (not mine):
----------------------- f = findobj(0); f(f == 0) = []; set(f, 'DeleteFcn', '') f = findobj('Type', 'figure');;
[code]...
I have a Radeon HD 6370M with proprietary drivers.
I need to set up permissions for matlab (at least I think permissions is the problem). I haven't been able to find any conclusive instructions how to set permissions and the advice I see are often confusing or contradictory. I have installed matlab (64-bit version) using root account as that was recommended by the installer and everything seems fine except for the error message I got after installation:
[root@localhost User]# /mnt/dvd/install The following messages were written to standard error while running 'xsetup' the X Window System version of 'install'. xsetup: Unable to load required font. Warning: This program is an suid-root program or is being run by the root user. The full text of the error or warning message cannot be safely formatted in this environment. You may get a more descriptive message by running the program as a non-root user or by removing the suid bit on the executable. Warning: Cannot convert string "%s" to type %s Check the content of the installation output file (backend):
/usr/local/lib64/matlab/install_matlab.out Error messages found: Warning: Permission Problem With MATLAB Files! | Checked some files in your MATLAB root directory. These are bad:| -r--r--r--. (not world readable) - ./toolbox/matlab/general/diary.m .....
Can I set up permissions to make it work afterwards? If so - how? I see the error message talking about the permissions being -r--r--r-- which I guess is only readable to all users. But should I set permissions to folders, executables or both? Was there anything I could have done before installation to make this work? I'm rather new to linux though I feel quite comfortable to work with the terminal. My system is fedora 13.
I found this excellent resource: [URL]. Though I'm still not sure how to set up permissions and I'm a bit hesitant as I don't want to create any security holes in my system. Would it be enough for me to give executable rights for my user to the program files in usr/local/bin? Now that I look at the permissions it seems I already have permission (through others...?) to the mentioned files. ... -r-xr-xr-x. 1 root root 174426 5 jan 2010 librxtxSerial.so -r-xr-xr-x. 1 root root 94246 4 jan 2010 libtbbmalloc.so.2 ...
I've followed the guide here for installing MATLAB. The installation completed successfully, however, the launcher created doesn't launch MATLAB as MATLAB isn't installed anywhere pointed to by $PATH. What's the best way of solving this - adding MATLAB's directory to $PATH (in which case how do I go about doing so), or (re)installing MATLAB to somewhere already in $PATH?
Our Matlab users met the problem in Ubuntu while using Latex interpreter in Matlab. Namely, eps and pdf files generation out of Matlab plot outputs plot legend and axes lables incorrectly. All the letters are mixed, impression that character spaces are too dense. We can't blame Matlab, since exactly the same examples with the same Matlab version work fine on CentOS. We tested Ubntu 9.10, 10.4 and 10.10 -- same problem. Matlab version R2010b.
In addition, jpg, png generated with no problems. It's eps and pdf only Matlab example: plot(1:1:10) xlabel('example','Interpreter','latex') ylabel('ExAmPlE','Interpreter','latex') a=legend('EXAMPLE example ExAmPle') set(a,'Interpreter','latex','Fontsize',13) print -depsc2 figure1 I am attaching a PDF, looks same as eps, but easier to display.
