Simulink and linux

When i try to open a simulink model i get the error:

MATLAB:dispatcher:loadLibrary Can't load ~/Matlab2011bu/bin/glnxa64/libmwsimulink.so': libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory. Caught MathWorks::System::FatalException.

Has anyone had a similar problem? What could i do?

Some clarifications are needed:

Is this a new install?

Did this work last week?

Have you changed the system configuration (PATH, ldd)

What distribution are you using?

Is the library actually present?

Are you on the console or using a remote X session?

I'm suspecting that a call to install support might be your quickest solution.

No, it is not a new install and this is the first time i try to run a simulink model. I dont know what distribution is being used because it is a grid computer and i have a remote access. In the usr/lib folder i can see libGL.so.1 and libGL.so.1.2 but not libGLU.so.1

It looks like you need to install OpenGL libraries. I'm not familiar with this issue, but found a couple of solutions that you may find useful:
