Hi Justin

This has been discussed several times on the list.  The -np flag is no

Yes, I know that and that is what I would have expected. But what I'm
running is the gmxtest.pl script. Even using the 4.0.4 version, it explicit
states that I must use "-np N" to make parallel works on its own command
line.

************
gmxtest.pl
Usage: ./gmxtest.pl [ -np N ] [-verbose ] [ -double ] [ simple | complex |
kernel | pdb2gmx | all ]
   or: ./gmxtest.pl clean | refclean | dist
************

I would expect that the script would use it only for mdrun and not for
grompp, but it seems to try to use on both. What becomes really strange it
the testbed really works. So, gmxtest.pl has a bug on 4.0.4? Or how should I
really tell gmxtest.pl to test in a growing number of cores?

I'll login for those and try to get any reproducible error here. ;) As soon
as I have these, I post back in this thread.

Thanks a lot again,
