Hi,

This has no influence, it is a message about the Pulay mixing algorithm
which tries to solve the problem using SVD since the inversion failed.
When an inversion fails in a Pulay mixing scheme it means that two
iterations are extremely close and thus the matrix becomes non-invertible.
When this happens one can change to the SVD routine which will more likely
work.
