[gmx-users] Fatal error: ci = -2147483616 should be in 0 ...

[Peter C. Lai]

afaik, Athlon/Duron class chips work fine. I'm not surprised,
since it appears that K6 chips have first/second generation 3DNow implementations
that don't play nice with gromacs 3DNow code (which afaik has been deprecated
in favor of SSE anyway). Any devs want to correct me if I'm wrong on this
speculation? 
In any case, it appears that people on this mailing list
have used gromacs successfully with Athlon in default software configurations.
