Anyone know how to fix it?

Could you give me your machine's graphics driver version?

You can know the version by the following command in the Terminal,

 cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version

In my case, it returns "NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 340.65 Tue Dec 2 09:50:34 PST 2014"

Anyway, there's a workaround by running MATLAB forcing openGL, by the following command in the Terminal when starting MATLAB.

 matlab -r "opengl info"

I do not have the file /proc/driver/nvidia/version, so I have to install the driver for my video card? matlab -r "opengl info" do works! Thanks a lot.

[Kojiro Saito]

I think you have already installed graphics driver. You might confirm the video card and kernel module by

lspci -k | grep -A 2 -i "VGA"

then the drive version by,

modinfo nvidia | grep version

I used "matlab -r "opengl info"" command for this problem, but after that my matlab crashed when I running. How to cancel this mode?
