Yes I tried this and it doesn't work for me.  I get:

Fatal error:
Library file ffG53a6.n2t not found in current dir nor in default
directories.
(You can set the directories to search with the GMXLIB path variable)

Also, doesn't x2top take in a gro file?  (not a pdb)  I wrote a script that
converts pdb to gro, and I still get the above error.
