Sorry for the vague nature of the message. I assure you I gave you all the
information I had at the time, though perhaps that means I just shouldn't
have submitted a bug yet. It doesn't work no matter which machine I try
(though I think all were linux athena machines) and even if I delete my
R2006b folder and start from scratch. I'm using
% add matlab
% matlab -ver 7.3 -desktop &
One thing that occurred to me is that it clearly takes stuff from
~/.matlab/R2006a to create the R2006b folder. So, I tried restarting after
moving my entire .matlab folder, and it still didn't work. I can't think
of what else would be different in my athena directory that would have an
affect.
Regards,
Jonathan
