"> Has anyone else had problems with 10.4.8?
i am using a macbook pro (version 1,1; 2 GHz, 2 GB). i have the first
beta release installed, renamed libXm.2.dylib to libXm.3.dylib as
suggested by leslie mehrez (the mathworks), matlab runs fine since
then except for a warning "Usage of DATEVEC with empty date strings
is not supported. Results may change in future versions.". i have
upgraded to 10.4.8 this morning - matlab still runs fine except for
the warning. the OpenGL warning, however, has disappeared."
Use at your own risk!
