[gmx-users] About RPM files

[Alan Wilter Sousa da Silva]

Hi again,

	Codine is from SUN (look for gridwire), it is thought to work with
any system (solaris, linux etc), but it is not complete, I mean, it is not
like mosix working properly.  However it is quite easy to install and
setup.

	But, my first question, should I have to compile GMX again or the
RPM package is already optimised to Athlon?
