Thank you Giuseppe those are useful informations, I will search for the video 
first.

Objet : Re: [QE-users] I'm confused about how to use PBE0

Dear all,

Thank you for the valuable informations.

I ran the calculations and after some time i get the following message in 
terminal:


Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key[-Precision-3640-Tower:198424] Read -1, expected 
68400, errno = 3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Primary job  terminated normally, but 1 process returned
a non-zero exit code. Per user-direction, the job has been aborted.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
mpirun noticed that process rank 0 with PID 0 on node -Precision-3640-Tower 
exited on signal 9 (Killed).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[1]+  Exit 137


And when I go to the last lines in the output file , I find this:

     convergence has been achieved in   8 iterations

     Using ACE for calculation of exact exchange

     EXX grid:   175829 G-vectors     FFT dimensions: (  72,  72,  72)



It seems like I'm facing a problem. How can I fix it, please?

A 4-atom unit cell of ZnO can likely run on a desktop/laptop pc using
PBE0, as long as you don't care too much about your hardware
(desktop/laptop pc are generally not happy if you stress them for
hours with codes designed mainly for workstation/HPC use). You can
still find somewhere in the internet a famous video posted many years
ago by prof. Marzari who run a 2-atom Si cell on his Nokia N-something
cell phone. :-D

Completely different is the case of a ZnO bulk supercell or even
surface slab. No way in this case, you need suitable resources.

Anyway, ZnO is a nasty beast, as you can have spurious mixing of Zn 3d
and O 2p shells. If you are mainly interested in recovering a band gap
close to the optically measured one, then you should mess with the EXX
fraction of PBE0 (or HSE), raising it to 35-40%.
