Dear All,
When running VC-Relax on 2D MnO2 I am running into the previously discussed
error of:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Error in routine cdiaghg (22):
problems computing cholesky
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
>From my readings into this error through the archive it appears that the issue
>may arise from initial atomic positions but am unsure how to remedy this, or
>if this even the source of error, in this case.
I have been running in version 5.4.0, and the input file is below. Any advice
or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
