matlab installation through wine

Dear all, I installed wine in order to install matlab, which i have for windows installation (.exe). Everything went smoothly until 94% of the installation when there was a problem ‘import_dll Library MFC42.DLL’. Looking on the web, i found and typed this: winetricks mfc42
So, i started again the installation and this time it went past the point it stopped before, but gave the following error when it finished:

Unhandled Exception:
System.NotImplementedException: The requested feature is not implemented.
at (wrapper native-to-managed) <Module>.installAssemblyIntoGAC (char*) <0x00073>

[ERROR] FATAL UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: System.NotImplementedException: The requested feature is not implemented.
at (wrapper native-to-managed) <Module>.installAssemblyIntoGAC (char*) <0x00073>

Any help??

Thank you

Check with the wine site and see if there are special instruction

Possibly
Run in a Windows guest VM
There is a Linux version that is available.

Please specify which version number of MATLAB. The post-6 versions are very licence-conscious and I suspect will be
particularly sensitive to the OS environment (for compiling etc…).

A better solution would be to obtain the Linux version.

The best solution would be to switch to Python+IPython+Numpy+Scipy+Matplotlib :).

Are you aware that Octave is a opensource port of Matlab
and it is in the base repo


su -
zypper in octave  qtoctave 

qtoctave is a gui

or

install the Linuix build of Matlab
PS
running *.m files ( unless you use the GPU ) is very slow
and using wine to run matlab will slow down the running of it to ONE CPU – single threaded slow .
if you have a i5 quad core you will only be using one core in wine

octave can use CUDA
