Eventual non-negativity of Matrices

Consider the problem: given a matrix MM over integers, does there exist a natural number nn such that MnM^n has only non-negative entries? Is this question as hard as ultimate positivity? Note that if you consider two matrices M,NM, N and ask if there exists nn such that Mn+NnM^n+ N^n has only non-negative entries, that problem is indeed equivalent to ultimate positivity, but with a single matrix, we do not know. Note also that if we ask strict positivity of entries, the single matrix case becomes easy!
