[gmx-developers] gmx 3.3_rc1 - block_tx.c error

Hello again,

I'm sorry for posting again ... this is probably all due to my lack of 
familiarity with CVS commands in general, but I tried the following:

cvs co -r release-3-3-patches gmx

I compiled and tried to run my test system, but still got the block_tx.c 
error.  So I tried the head branch, at least I think so, using the 
following:

cvs co -r HEAD gmx

I did not try to run anything, but the header for a given program does 
not say 3.3_beta20050831.  Rather, it still says  :-)  VERSION 3.3_rc1  (-:. 
I also tried just a regular cvs co gmx with the same result. By the way, I 
don't think it matters, but I'm following the instructions on the gmx 
website as closely as possible, so I give the commands like:

cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anoncvs at cvs.gromacs.org:/home/gmx/cvs login
cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anoncvs at cvs.gromacs.org:/home/gmx/cvs co gmx

Should I try something like

cvs co -r 3.3_beta20050831 gmx

?

thanks,
David
