Where can I get more functions for my Matlab version? Say some of the functions that the Matlab at school has?

you gotta pay for them.

Or an illegal way would be to copy the m files from the campus installation to your computer.

I don't think it's legal though.

I thought you used to able to get Matlab free from NC State? Don't we have rights to Matlab, or did they change that?

Any other ways besides copying?

If you're an engineer, you can use the exact same Matlab you use at school on your home computer for free via Remote Access & VCL.

http://vcl.ncsu.edu

For the love of god, I cannot get remote access to work for matlab.

I installed X win, Putty.
I logged in through remote.eos.ncsu.edu
would throw some kind of memory or java error during loading of matlab.

then I tried VCL, and reserved my own machine.
Logged in and started matlab
Couldn't get the graphical matlab to start, only the command line version

Any ideas?

yeah, you could steal a computer from one of the labs and run a REALLY long ethernet cable and series of hubs back to your appartment to keep it on the campus network

ha, don't tempt me , at this point I am just plain frustrated.

9/7/2005 11:03:43 PM

dude you need to forward the X packets

use something like ssh -X remote.eos.ncsu.edu

pfft, way to offer the boring solution

9/7/2005 11:20:29 PM

ok

here's the interesting solution

I have MATLAB demo disks but I lost the 30 day evaluation license.

thanks, esgargs....worked like a champ!

^So you can copy the functions off the demo disk?

That would be about as legal as copying them from on campus

except that this time I would be aiding you.

thanks anyways
