Live scripts don't work after installing matlab-support on Ubuntu Budgie

I used to launch MATLAB with the terminal, so I decided to do something about it and went for the shortest path possible: I installed matlab-support (using the terminal). In the process I changed some file extensions because the installation recommended to do so, but after openning MATLAB (from the new icon) I stumbled upon this message:

com.jogamp.opengl.GLException: X11GLXDrawableFactory - Could not initialize shared resources for X11GraphicsDevice[type .x11, connection :0, unitID 0, handle 0x0, owner false, ResourceToolkitLock[obj 0x2f42f193, isOwner false, <6812f351, 7716c644>[count 0, qsz 0, owner <NULL>]]]

What options do I have? Do I have to reinstall MATLAB?
