I see, I always imagined the higher the cut-off value the better, and did
not pay attention that it need also to fit with the used FF. Here I am
using the gromos54a7 FF. I am going to reduce it to around 0.9. Although I
do not think it can help with the LINC warning and crashing. So, do you
know what else might cause the problem here in spite of several round of
successful equilibration.
