Re: [Pw_forum] [qe-gpu]
Dear I-do-not-know-your-name, the suggestion is to remove both packages, check permission of your directories and re-download them. Based on the little information provided, it looks like a unix/system problem and not a QE/QE-GPU problem.

Re: [Pw_forum] Request input file
you should start step by step looking at documentation, examples (provided with the package) and tutorials (http://www.quantum-espresso.org/tutorials/), then first work on each system separately. Using google and/or literature you can understand unit cells of graphene and TiO2, and implement them in the quantum-espresso input. It is quite unlikely, although possible is you are very lucky, that someone will provide all what you need for your work, mostly if you give no sufficient information. For example what do you mean with hybrid graphene and TiO2? Which crystal structure of TiO2 (three possible: rutile, anatase, broke)? Which TiO2 surface (001, 110, …)?

In the case, you might want to passivate the two sides of the slab with hydrogens. If not, dangling bonds that necessarily appear can be more difficult to converge. Also, consider that for that surface, surface Si atoms are known to form dimers, that is, to pair and form surface supercells (2x1, 2x2, 4x2, see the literature). If instead you want to converge exactly the system shown in your input file, you should better use occupations=’smearing’ (otherwise the degauss variable you next specify is useless!). Even though your surface is not metallic, that can help to converge when there are near gap electronic states, that “oscillate” in the scf convergence procedure. Moreover, the cutoff you use might be insufficient to get converged results. Finally, to save computing time, the 4x4x4 k-point grid can be replaced with 4x4x1, because sampling the Brillouin zone along the direction normal to the surface is useless, if the periodic replica of the slab are separated by vacuum space (z direction is in this case a “non-periodic” direction, sampled with a periodic supercell).
