Well like I mentioned, I'm not a programer or linux person, or even the primary person to use the computer. I'm more the one that told my boss we need to buy a faster computer than a 500 MHz to do number crunching... But, I feel I am the one who need to make sure it works, so please be patient with my ignorance. 1) I honestly dont know what is not working about. The 2 people I have asked just tell me they have not been able to get it to work yet. - We are at the Univ. of Utah and have a site license to Gaussian 03 and gaussview. so if anyone could send me a tar ball, I would be sure to put you in contact with the computer licensing people here at the chem department. (this would be the easist way to help me since, they wont give me the source code) 2) supposedly gauss view is on the machine and running. I have loaded the program, but when I try to load .com or .log files generated (I'm guessing by g98 on another machine) it gives an error message. 3) we don't have the portland compilers, but the High Performance Computer Center here just bought 1000 opterons. I'm guessing they will buy the software eventually. But they don't want to support us until they have their cluster running... I have gotten LAPACK compiled (I think) and gOpenMol. they run... if that is at all useful to know. any suggestions on where to go from here, or what information to relay to the people I have asked to compile this software.

I'm not really a linux person but I have been working with other people on trying to get this software compiled. The other people have since left me hanging, saying they either dont have time or are just having trouble getting it to work. Has anyone had success on getting programs like these to work in x86-64 mode? (not IA-32/64 compiled) thanks,
What problems exactly are you facing? We've ported our whole distribution and do know a bit about those problems. So, if you have specific questions, ask...
