g_covar calculates the eigenvectors. It's what you end up with through
diagonalization.

g_rmsf is not for calculating RMSD, and hasn't got much to do with
eigenvector analysis. That's what g_anaeig is for (like with the
option -rmsf). Using g_anaeig will avoid the error you observe.

As a side note, 3 ns is rather short for this sort of thing. You have
to check the cosine content of the first principal components to see
if you've reached equilibrium already.

Cheers,

Tsjerk
