I'm not familiar with the psfig package. I always use
\usepackage[dvips]{graphicx} for postscript graphics and
\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx} for pdf graphics. To convert from .eps to .pdf,
use the 'epstopdf' tool. Not sure which pacakge that is, but 'apt-cache
search' should help (I'm at work right now on a Solaris box).
Also, Matlab has supported .eps files natively for years, so I would be very
surprised if simulink did not. You might have to click through a few dialog
boxes (one reason I prefer matlab to simulink), but the option should be
there.
Have fun.
