When I call matlab from terminal I got

libGL error: unable to load driver: r600_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: r600
libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast

I can locate library

milenko@milenko-desktop:~$ locate r600_dri.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/r600_dri.so

I have made symbolic link

 sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1.2.0 /usr/local/MATLAB/MATLAB_Production_Server/R2015a/sys/opengl/lib/glnxa64/libGL.so.1.5.070200

but

libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/tls/r600_dri.so
libGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/r600_dri.so

What should I try?I am on Ubuntu 16.04.

Apprarently the problem is due to having the drivers installed in two folders. I found a solution on the official MATLAB forum.

I solved the problem by renaming the driver file:

cd MATLAB_ROOT/sys/os/glnxa64/
sudo mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.old
0

You can try following command to make a symbolic link.

ln -sf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 /opt/MATLAB/XXXXX(R2014b)/sys/os/glnxa64/libstdc++.so.6
0
0

I solved the problem by renaming the driver file.

cd MATLAB/sys/os/glnxa64/
sudo mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.old
