Hi Justin,
Thanks for the reply. I am doing the energy minimization of Na K pump
with PDB ID 3B8E using MARTINI forcefield. Here is my em.mdp file for
the same. First I get the .gro file from my cleaned PDB file and then
try to minimize the system using grompp and then when I do mdrun it
gives me lincs warning and gives me segmentation fault.
Well, if your system is crashing during EM, there is something geometrically
unresolvable about the structure. Does your structure after the MARTINI
conversion process look reasonable?
You can try setting "nstxout = 1" to try to capture frames before the crash to
see where things are falling apart.

Hi,
I have a quick question. My system exploded when I tried to run
the simulation and it gives me the LINCS warning. I am using
MARTINI forcefield and finally I get segmentation fault. I don't
know that what are the factors do i need to change to get rid of
the LINCS warning. Please let me know. I also tried changing the
large Van Der Waal distance but it doesn't work either. Do you
have any idea?
General answer: your system is unstable. Changing cutoffs
haphazardly is a recipe for failure; these values are often
intimately linked to the validity of the force field. You will
probably have to provide more information on what you are doing
(system description, as well as your .mdp file). Now that the
mailing list search is functioning again (officially), you should be
able to search the list archive. LINCS errors are posted weekly, if
not daily sometimes!
