Hi,

there is an issue on the Altix with the assembly kernels which
you might suffer from. Your simulation would then get stuck
at time step 0, which could be the case from the status of the
run you are reporting.

Try to compile with the following extra options:

--disable-ia64-asm --enable-fortran

The fortran loops will be nearly as fast as the assembly kernels
on that machine.
