[gmx-users] g_rms matrix between wt and mutant

When I try to work the command on a small portion of the backbone it seems
to work just fine. But when I try the entire backbone (which is composed of
several *separate* chains) I am getting segmentation fault.
Any workaround for that, so I can use the entire backbone?
Thanks again,
