[gmx-users] OS - Compiler - GROMACS compatibility

[alkasrivastava at iitb.ac.in]

Hi,

Since the following warning is given in the GROMACS home page,

--------------------
WARNING: do not use the gcc 4.1.x set of compilers. They are broken. These
compilers come with recent Linux distrubutions like Fedora 5/6 etc.
--------------------

is the problem only with the 4.1.x series or with compilers of higher
series also? Can we use the latest 4.3.2 series of compilers which come
with fedora core 10?

Also is it possible that we install 4.0 series of compiler in the
operating system with higher series of compilers and use gromacs then.

We bought a new system but that is not supporting fedora core 4 so we are
wondering which operating system should be used or if any alternative is
there.

Please help me.

Thanks in advance
ALKA
