Thanks Mark for your reply. First I want to know do I have to update GMX? for example, when GMX4.5.5 come out, and I use GMX4.5.5 instead of GMX4.5.4. I think GMX4.0.7 is even more stable. Second is the error while install GMX4.5.5. I use configure instead of CMake. I have successfully installed GMX4.5.4 and GMX4.0.7 with these command . I use GNU C compiler, and hareware is a 8 core Dell sever. Command line used is : tar xzvf gromacs-4.5.5.tar.gz ./configure --prefix=/home/hzj1000/software/GMX/4.5.5 --with-gsl --with-fft=fftw3 make and an error cc -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -finline-functions -Wall -Wno-unused -msse2 -funroll-all-loops -std=gnu99 -pthread -I./include -o .libs/grompp grompp.o -L/home/hzj1000/software/fftw/lib ./.libs/libgmxpreprocess.so /home/hzj1000/gromacs-4.5.5/src/mdlib/.libs/libmd.so ../mdlib/.libs/libmd.so /home/hzj1000/gromacs-4.5.5/src/gmxlib/.libs/libgmx.so ../gmxlib/.libs/libgmx.so -ldl -lnsl -lm -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/home/hzj1000/software/GMX/4.5.5/lib /home/hzj1000/gromacs-4.5.5/src/gmxlib/.libs/libgmx.so: undefined reference to `pthread_setaffinity_np' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [grompp] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/hzj1000/gromacs-4.5.5/src/kernel' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/hzj1000/gromacs-4.5.5/src' make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/hzj1000/gromacs-4.5.5/src' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 The output of configure: checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking how to create a ustar tar archive... gnutar checking for cc... cc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether cc accepts -g... yes checking for cc option to accept ISO C89... none needed checking for style of include used by make...
