Dear Michal
Yes, it is. But do not expect extremely smooth convergence... AFAIK you must recompile QE with link to a not so old version of libxc to use SCAN.

Dear Paolo,
Thanks. The same calculation works perfectly fine with PBE, revPBE and
PBEsol. Is SCAN less nasty than TPSS in your experience?
Best,
Michal

Very likely your error is caused by meta-GGA, not by pseudopotentials (try
the same calculation without meta-GGA). TPSS is especially nasty.

Hello,
I tried calculating a SiO2 slab with some adsorbate (optimized with PBE
using PAW) with TPSS, but I'm getting the following error:
   task #        80
     from cdiaghg : error #         4
     eigenvectors failed to converge
I read in the FAQ that this could be caused by bad pseudopotentials. I
used norm-conserving pseudos from PseudoDojo, obtained for PBE. Is it why
my calculation failed? If so, how do I generate (or where do I find)
pseudos for TPSS?

Thanks in advance,

Michal Krompiec
