solve - unable to find explicit solution

Hi, please help me out
Here is my code:
syms s t X(s) x(t) Xs(s);
ode = diff(x, t, 2) + 2*diff(x, t) + x == cosh(2*t);
L = laplace(ode,t,s);
eqn = subs(L,[laplace(x(t), t, s), subs(diff(x(t), t), t, 0), x(0)],[X, 4, 1])
solve(eqn);
xt=ilaplace(Xs);
I can't use fsolve or vpasolve since I need to take the ILT. By hand I can solve the equation, but matlab conks out for some reason. Any ideas on what to do?

Hi Alexei,
Try to use isolate instead of solve to get an expression for X(s). Also, make sure to take the ilaplace of X(s), not Xs.
If you try and still have a problem, post back with updated code showing where the roadblock is.
