Hi all, I tried using mkl 9.1.023 and then siesta compiles and runs smoothly. So, a question to the developers (and the rest of the list, as well): has siesta been compiled in parallel - and most importantly, run without errors :D - using the latest version of the mkl, using mpich2 and "home-compiled" scalapack and blacs? Does it work properly with the latest mkl AND the intel mpi (which now is available free of charge as well)?
