Dear Prof. Auluck,
That is strange because I compiled siesta with mkl/cmkl 10 and ifort 10 on 2 X Xeon quad core machine. It also works. Well, to be honest it 'almost' works. Everithing goes fine until the band structure is calcultaed at the end of run (error in Cholesky factorization). Then I have to restart the calculations in single mode to get the band structure. I have also compiled netlib blacs and scalapack with ifort 10 and this works perfectly, although slightly slower than with mkl/cmkl 10.
All the best, Mariusz. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr Mariusz Krawiec Institute of Physics Phone: +48 81 537 6146 M Curie-Sklodowska University Fax: +48 81 537 6191 pl.

hi, in the past few days i have been strugling to get siesta to run in parallel on our xeon cluster. in this process a lot of users gave me ideas. i appreciate their help and guidance. let me share with you my experiences......... i used mpich2 loaded on a RHEL4 o/s.and intel compilers...... i was using the latest siesta available on the net....2.09..** i tried ifort10, ifort9, mkl/cmkl versions 8.0 and 10.0.011 the end result is that ifort9+cmkl8.0 is the one that works.... s.auluckDear Users After setting all the enviroment variables in our dual-core machine, the compilation process stops with this error: ld: cannot find libmkl_intel.a make: *** [siesta] Error 1 the ifort and mkl enviroment variables are ok the ld.so.conf includes: /opt/intel/fc/10.1.012/lib/ /opt/intel/mkl/10.0.1.014/lib/32/ /opt/intel/mkl/10.0.1.014/lib/emt64/ Any hint?
