Hi,
I am trying to simulate an oscillator circuit. When I run the simulation I get the following response:

gnucap -b oscillator.cir
Gnucap 2009.12.07 RCS 26.136
...
oscillator.cir
#
 27.
#Time
zero time step
newtime=1.000000e-12  rejectedtime=1.000000e-12 oldtime=0.000000e+00
non-recoverable user requested
newtime=1.000000e-12 rejectedtime=2.000000e-12 oldtime=1.000000e-12 using=2.000000e-12
tried everything, still doesn't work, giving up

I have tried the circuit with ngspice and it works fine. The file is shown below:

oscillator.cir
* 100MHz Oscillator
* This oscillator takes about 100us to reach steady state.
* The charge displacement through each capacitor is 170pC p-p
* 0.01radians = 0.16% = 16ps @ 100MHz

.param start_print = 100.01u
.param stop_time = 100.15u

Any ideas?
