I think I'd better add a bit to the above. As some other Matlab user
mentionned, there are some debian-specific fixes needed when one
installs. Also, we are using 5.0 with a few toolboxes. Some of the
toolboxes are not yet available for Linux in version 5.0, but workarounds
are provided--I haven't made the Image Processing toolbox work yet. The
most important fix as mentionned in another message is a missing library
that can be downloaded from an ftp site--see the FAQs at the Matlab www
page.
Cheers. Syrus.
