Thanks. First, ~>rpm -q --whatprovides libc.so.6 glibc-32bit-2.4-30
In the RC3, libc.so.6 is a symlink to libc-2.4.so in glibc-2.4-22.i686.rpm.

I am still pretty new to Linux and might not figure how to handle symbolic links correctly. Carlos, do you suggest something like (okay, I don't know what I'm doing..) cd $MATLAB/bin sudo ln -s /lib64/libc.so.6 libc.so.6 Furthermore, if I remove the lines LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.21 export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL from $MATLAB/bin/.matlab7rc.sh, I get a different error message when trying to start matlab: *** glibc detected *** /usr/local/matlab704/bin/glnxa64/MATLAB: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0000000000597de0 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6[0x2aea9532839e] /lib64/libc.so.6[0x2aea9532a334] /lib64/libc.so.6(calloc+0x9f)[0x2aea9532b81f] /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2[0x2aea93b952ea] /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2(_dl_allocate_tls+0xe)[0x2aea93b953ae] and so on. Maybe I should wait until more experienced Linux users run into problems installing Matlab on 10.1 64-bit and wait for their suggestions... Joachim
