[gmx-users] Problem with PME

hi s., 

as you are using the integrator steep, i assume you are running energy
minimisations?
in that case i suspect that the type of coulomb-interaction model is not
critical, so you can set it to cut-off. 
what i have found is that energy minimisation doesn't work with
coulomb-type = (generalised) reaction-field, so it might be the same
case with pme. 

@david van der spoel: is this a bug? 

best regards and good luck, 
daniela
