[gmx-users] Regarding minimization of POPE:POPG lipid bilayer

Simplify. Start with pure POPE and pure POPG first.

Your topologies are incorrect. Start with a simple test system: a
single POPE in vaccuum.

Why not take a look at line 10 (or line 8) in dpopg.itp?


You are still a long way from simulating a protein in the bilayer. May
I recommend that you try a little harder to solve your problems before
posting (e.g. by reading the warning messages carefully and seeing
what they mean for yourself, or by trying to find a simpler test
system to narrow down the problem). In this way you will avoid  
decreasing your likelihood of receiving answers to the harder problems  
you may encounter.


Good luck.
