Hey all,
       I wanted to install gromacs on one node of a cluster.  Firstly I
downloaded all needed packages to /home/william/software, then unpack all of
them under this folder.
       Then, I followed the " Quick and Dirty Installation" instruction
using following commands:


export SOFT=$HOME/software
export CPPFLAGS="-I$SOFT/include"
export LDFLAGS="-L$SOFT/lib"
export NCPU=2
export PATH="$PATH":$SOFT/bin
cd ../fftw-3.2.2; ./configure --prefix=$SOFT --enable-float && make -j
$NCPU && make install
cd ../gsl-1.11; ./configure --prefix=$SOFT && make -j $NCPU && make install
cd ../gromacs-4.0.2; ./configure --prefix=$SOFT --enable-mpi
--with-gsl && make -j $NCPU && make install
cd ../openmotif-2.3.1; ./configure --prefix=$SOFT && make -j $NCPU &&
make install
cd ../grace-5.1.22; ./configure --prefix=$SOFT && make -j $NCPU &&
make install && ln -s $SOFT/grace/bin/xmgrace $SOFT/bin/xmgrace
. $SOFT/bin/GMXRC


    The problem occurred when I configured gromacs, the error
information's as follows:

/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so when
searching for -lX11
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.a when

make[1]: *** [all] Error 2

make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1



     I do want to install gromacs in /home/william/software, and I
havn't root permission. I think the reason of failoue maybe because
environment virieable setting, but I can't figure it out after some
trying. Would anyone please give me some help, I really appreciate.
Thanks.


Best regards,
william
