Folks,

If you run MATLAB without Java (matlab -nojvm), graphics seem to work. You can also run matlab -nodisplay if you don't need to see any graphics. In this case, all graphics calls will still work, they just don't display anything.

As for OpenGL, I have configured MATLAB to use its own OpenGL implementation, as opposed to IBM's. Not sure if the IBM install is not complete or what, but at least MATLAB works now.

You will also want to put the following in your .profile and make sure /usr/local/bin is in your path.
export BLAS_VERSION=/usr/local/matlab6p5/bin/ibm_rs/atlas_common.a

FYI: MATLAB command line switches

If you use
matlab -jvm -desktop &
one of the warnings (Warning: You have specified multiple/conflicting Java options. Using 'desktop'.) goes away.

I was able to edit files, display images, and such. Note that matlab -jvm alone still causes MATLAB to crash when you open a figure.

Folks,

Try running
matlab -desktop &
It shows an error message, but then seems to bring up the MATLAB desktop. I briefly tested help, the editor and a couple other things, and they seem to work.

Let me know if you find any bugs/problems.

Golgi Users,

Jimmy setup MATLAB on golgi to automatically disable the jvm for everyone by default so there is no need to include the -nojvm flag anymore. More details on using MATLAB on golgi, along with instructions for setting up X-Win32 and F-Secure for connecting to golgi can be found in the education (http://www.biac.duke.edu/education/) section of the BIAC website.

Enjoy,
Chuck

You can skip setting up your X-Win32 session (just cancel out of the wizard) and you should still be able to have Volta display on your machine. This is functional but I don't know if it's better to define the settings.

What settings should we use with X-Win32 to have Volta display on our Windows machines? Namely, which connect method (rsh, rexec, or XDMCP) should we use, and what is the host command (e.g. for Sun OS: /usr/openwin/bin/xterm -ls -display $MYIP:$DNUM)?

Thanks,
Josh

If you get tired of typing -nojvm you can include the following in your .profile:
alias matlab='matlab -nojvm'
Also, if you are running MATLAB in display mode, you need to have X-Win32 running on your Windows machine.
