[Wien] Volume optimizer for orthorhombic structre

2011-11-09 Thread Viktor Zano
Dear Wien2k users
I have to do a volume optimizer?for orthorhombic structure, without keeping the 
ratio a/b/c constant, so this is 3D problem.
It is a large cell with heavy atoms,so each point takes more than 24 hours.
I can do it either manualy or automaticaly.
Does anyone have a good idea how to save calculations time?
Your help is needed!
Thanks, Victor

Use iterative diagonalization.

We run WIEN2k on several machines running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS using ext4
partitions and there are no problems.

[Wien] ex4 partition on Linux

2011-11-09 Thread ali ghafari
Dear Eamon
Thank you very much for your reply. Actually I installed Centos 6 using ex4 
partition. when I run Wien2K, in the SCF at the lapw1 the program stop and I 
received a massage that lapw1.def failed. While I am sure that strut file and 
initialization and... are Ok because when I copy all files to other PC which 
has Ubuntu it works. 

Therefor I thought the problem could be due to partition.
