Hi,

Has anybody succeeded in running the 64-bit version of Matlab (7.0.4) on an Opteron machine running SUSE Linux 9.3?

I get:

$ /lw64/matlab/7.0.4/bin/matlab *** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0000000000598840 *** Aborted

I've got a workaround from MathWorks' support which seems to work: <cite> Open the .matlab7rc.sh file in your $MATLAB/bin folder (where $MATLAB is your MATLAB installation directory). Add the following two lines to the beginning of the .matlab7rc.sh file: %%%BEGIN_CODE%%% LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL %%%END_CODE%%% </cite> -- A.M.
