[SOLVED]MATLAB problem

Hello,

I've installed MATLAB 2011a successfully on my laptop (Arch 64bit, gnome 3) and for some reason I can't launch it.
I'm keep getting the following error:

/usr/local/MATLAB/R2011a/bin/util/oscheck.sh: line 184: /lib64/libc.so.6: No such file or directory
/usr/local/MATLAB/R2011a/bin/glnxa64/MATLAB: error while loading shared libraries: libXp.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Help would be appreciated

Did you visit wiki page?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Matlab

You need to install libxp: "pacman -S libxp"

and ensure you have glibc installed: "pacman -S glibc"

Hopefully this will do it.

Installing libxp and glibc do the trick.
