Hi,A couple of questions:
I don't know if I'm asking the right people ... Simply looking for someone
who has a clue with following problem:
- tried to install Matlab (Mac OS 10.2). I followed Matlab instructions
step-by-step. It all went smoothly.
- When I started LaunchMatlab Xdarwin and OroborOSX start up and I have the
Matlab Icon appearing in the dock. However Matlab doesn't start and the icon
gradually disappears from the dock. No problems with the
window-manager-applications.
Does matlab start when you start OroborOSX first and then run matlab from a terminal as
MATLABDIR/bin/matlab
If this doesn't work, does it work as
MATLABDIR/bin/matlab -nojvm
Is your Matlab updated for 10.2?
I tried installation several times with always the same result.I am pretty sure you didn't install OroborOSX via fink :-) Anyway, if you had a working installation of OroborOSX on 10.2 there was no need to reinstall Xfree86 and OroborOSX from the Matlab CD. If you did, it is possible that you are in an inconsistent state with the xfree stuff, i.e. you may have some parts left over from the previous installation and most of it overwritten by the (probably older) versions from Matlab.
A very na�ve question: I installed Xdarwin & OroborOSX via Fink, so could
there be some relationship with my Matlab problem (since Matlab installsIf your OroborOSX is still working, including xterms and other X11 programs, then the problem might be on the matlab side. Starting it from a terminal might give some useful error message.
both programs again)?
Probably there's some stupid user-related error, however I'm having a harder
time getting a program costing a fortune to run than all my Fink-Unix-stuff
(means the fink-people are doing a wonderful job; thanks by the way).
A good lesson on open vs closed software development :-)
