Hi all,

Recently, I tried to compile siesta and transiesta on our computer cluster
using intel 11.1 compiler, MKL lib and openmpi, and I have added the patch
for 11.1 compiler according to the siesta website
(http://www.icmab.es/siesta/SIESTA/News/IntelV11). Both the package can be
compiled successfully and the siesta work quite well. However, when I tried
to run transiesta, I got the following error message:

 

InitMesh: MESH =   128 x   128 x    90 =     1474560

InitMesh: Mesh cutoff (required, used) =   100.000   100.857 Ry
