After successful installation, you should add Matlab do your <code>configuration.nix</code> file. Personally I have used modified tvitii[https://github.com/tviti/nix-cfg/tree/aunuu/pkgs/matlab] files. I have simply switched <code>runPath</code> to the path of freshly installed Matlab folder. Then in my configuration.nix I have used his matlab folder like so:

In case you have java errors, and you are using tvitii[https://github.com/tviti/nix-cfg/tree/master/pkgs/matlab]  derivation, you may need to modify <code>matlab.nix</code> to something like this:

=== Other possible issues ===


==== I can't see anything ====
==== I can't see anything ====


If you are using Window Manager and Matlab does not display anything, you will need to use <code>wmname</code> command (preferably when starting your session). Just run <code>wmname LG3D</code>, run Matlab again and the issue should be fixed.

==== No hardware support ====
There is a great answer about that here on Matlab answers[https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/241850-matlab-failing-to-find-hardware-opengl#answer_263092].
Summarizing this answer:
<syntaxHighlight lang=bash>
cd <your_matlab_location>/sys/os/glnxa64/
sudo mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.bak
sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6  libstdc++.so.6
</syntaxHighlight>
You will not have <code>/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6</code> at the time of following the steps, but Matlab will be run in FHS env, and this path will be visible for it.
