Hi,
there seems to be something wrong within the new gpu accelerated minimization as Francesco posted the same issue and I answered him a few second ago. I first thought this could also be an hardware issue of a single gpu, but two people with a broken gpu is really unlikely. So it’s the developers turn.
Best wishes
Norman Geist.

Betreff: namd-l: CUDA problem?
Dear:
I've built a membrane system from CHARMM GUI and use the equilibration protocol to relax my system. Everything goes well if I use the default setting and it was finished under CUDA mode. However, there is a ligand in my system and I would like to restrain it during step 6.1(see below of the file). Here is what I did to add constrain for my ligand
set sel [atomselect top all]
$sel set beta 0
set fix [atomselect top "protein and backbone or (resname LIG and not hydrogen)"]
$fix set beta 1
$sel writepdb bb_rmsd.ref
after that I am trying to run this 6.1.inp by command:
charmrun ++local +p4 namd2 +idlepoll step6.1_equilibration.inp > log
a few minutes later, it stopped with following logs:

However, if I don't use CUDA mode, everthing goes well.... and the simulation can be finished without any error.... Would you please give me some advices for this?
