How does one start Matlab in Opensuse 10.3?

[1joeyirosh4]

Hallo!I have installed Matlab 7.R14 on my OpenSuse 10.3 Linux.Unfortunately,when I try to run the matlab the error below appears

MATLAB: xcb_xlib.c:52: xcb_xlib_unlock: Assertion `c->xlib.lock' failed. Abort

Having looked at various forums I saw a possible solution as shown below

To solve it, make a file in your home or home/bin directory, let's say matlab.sh containing
Code:

#!/bin/sh
export LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK=1
matlab -desktop

and make it executable by
Code:

chmod +x matlab.sh

now if you run it
Code:

./matlab.sh

you should be able to start matlab.

I have implemented this but when I try to start matlab at the console using

./matlab.sh

The following error appears

./matlab.sh: line 3: matlab: command not found.

How do I solve this problem?

Where is matlab installed?

It must be in the path or you must use the full path to file.
