Dear all,

I have been running some calculations on a supercomputer with some constraints 
on the number of processors I can run QE. I am faced with the error:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     Error in routine  fft_type_set (6):
  there are processes with no planes. Use pencil decomposition (-pd .true.)
 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

How do I tell the code to use the pencil decomposition? I have tried adding -pd 
to the 'mpirun' an adding use_pd=.true. in the PW inout but in vain.

Thanks in advance
