Hi all,
I now have Matlab Student Edition working. It turned out that Matlab doesn't 
like submount. Details below.
Best regards

To get Matlab to understand that the Documentation CD is in the drive, I 
changed the /etc/fstab line for cdrecorder back to what it had been for SuSE 
9.0, ie, from:
/dev/cdrecorder /media/cdrecorder subfs      
fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,unhide,iocharset=utf8 0 0
back to:
/dev/cdrecorder /media/cdrecorder auto ro,noauto,user,exec  0 0

This worked. It turns out that I don't need LD_ASSUME_KERNEL for Matlab.

For my next trick, I'll figure out what's happening with Maple. I hope.
