Dear gmxions,
I tried to compile gromacs in SGI IRIX6.5. I followed configuring and
installing of fftw, both single and double precision as per gromacs
website. When I tried to configure gromacs...it says.." Cannot find any
single precision fftw.h or sfftw.h". I also checked the
"/usr/local/include/". The folder contains 2 files "fftw3.f" and
"fftw3.h". More I had the experince of compiling under cygwin. So I did
crosscheck for files under  folder in cygwin (/usr/local/include/ )
found exactly same files there too as "fftw3.f" and "fftw3.h". But the
configuration of gromacs worked in cygwin without any error, otherhand
why it fails in SGI ? Please help me out !

I also pasted detailed error output while configuring gromacs in SGI.

Do you have single precision FFTW installed? If you are using packages,
note that you also need fftw-devel to compile GROMACS. You can find the
software at www.fftw.org, and detailed instructions at www.gromacs.org.
If you compiled FFTW yourself:
Note that the default FFTW setup is double precision. Change the FFTW
configuration to single with --enable-float. If you want MPI support,
use --enable-mpi. It is a good idea to install both single & double.
If your sysadm doesn't want to install it you can do it to a location
in your home directory and provide the correct paths in ......
