That seems fine. Basically, your lipid's headgroup is shearing itself apart (which you can tell from the LINCS warnings). At this point, I could only guess as to what's going wrong, which probably won't do you much good. If you'd like to send me your structure, topologies, and .mdp file off-list, I'd be happy to have a look at them. -Justin > > Gadi > > > Quoting "Justin A.
