Hi i am using suse 10.. I have installed matlab 10 .. I have tried to create a shortcut icon for matlab . so i have created a link to matlab application. When i use this the shortcut the matlab banner appears and after some secs everything dissapears and the matlab dont even start. I have changed a little the shprtcut and i have added the option start from terminal.Now matlab starts fine.. Can u explain me that? I have the same behavior when i use in kde alt+f2 and i type matlab (matlab never start) but when i launch matlab inside a terminal everything goes fine

C'mon please use better thread titles than that...

Can you start Matlab from the command line? if so, then make sure that the link you are creating points to the right executable file.

Tho find the location of the executable, type 'which matlab' at the command line.
