Re: [ccp4bb] Problem in MAKE_U_POSITIVE
This is interesting. Would it be possible to have refmac provide some info WHICH U (i.e. atom) got negative EV ? I did not find anything and I use monitor many per default.

Re: [ccp4bb] Problem in MAKE_U_POSITIVE
This means that some U tensors are non-positive definite (i.e. no nice thermal ellipsoid). If by transient, you mean they have gone away by the last cycle of refinement, then you can maybe ignore them. But probably, you need to adjust your restraints, e.g. the SPHEricity restraint (under Geometric parameters in the gui).
