This isn't an answer, it's an ask. I'm running on Ubuntu 24.04. I normally work on a Mac and like to start Matlab from a command prompt. I try running the nohup <path to executable> &> /dev/null & and the splash screen flashes briefly, but the Matlab window never opens. A ps shows Matlab is running. If I try another GUI application like veracrypt, the wondow opens. The matlab command works without the nohup and it works if I run the symlink in /usr/local/bin/matlab.
Any idea why this might not be working on Ubuntu?
