I have the same problem.  Another forum:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/185311

gave several things to try, one of which partially fixed the
problem.

on Ubuntu 8.04, the following fixed the problem with v2007a,
but did not fix the problem with v2008a

export MATLAB_JAVA=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.06/jre

I am still trying to figure out why this isn't working with
v2008a

Hope this helps
