Hey Andi,
I understand that you are encountering the error "MATLAB is selecting SOFTWARE OPENGL rendering. Segmentation fault (core dumped)."
There is a known issue with Arch Linux related to the upgrade to ncurses 6, which leads to a segmentation violation upon startup. As a workaround, the Arch Linux wiki suggests installing the "ncurses5_compat_libs" package. For more information and a link to the package, refer to this page:
If this does not resolve the issue, it's challenging to determine the cause of the crash without additional information and logs for diagnosis. Please follow these steps and provide the following information in case you need further assistance:
- MATLAB Crash Dump
- Java crash logs (if the location is mentioned inside the content of the MATLAB Crash Dump; otherwise, skip this step).
Randomly attempting troubleshooting steps can complicate the issue. If you encounter complications, please specify:
- The specific steps you attempted.
- The change in behavior or display of the crash after implementing those steps.
Note: Keep a record of any additional troubleshooting steps you undertake, as they may impact the resolution of the actual problem.
I hope this helps!
