I am using Amber10 and I am having difficulties using antechamber to simulate an organic compound. I attempted to perform the tutorial with the sustiva.pdb file but my pc was not able to finish the calculations. My first question is how long is the calculation on a 32-bit 2.4 GHz PC using Ubuntu. The divconx file provided on the tutorial had a runtime of approximately 40s. I have let the computer run for over 24 hours with the concern that I was not letting the program run long enough. My second question is regarding mopac. I had been having some of the problems other posters have had concerning the "&" in the mopac.sh code. I removed the & and the syntax error went away. However, the terminal will load mopac.sh and just run constantly (using the "top" command shows that mopac is using 100% of the processor). The output file which mopac designates at FOR006 is created with the following message at the bottom: "NO POINT LOWER IN ENERGY THAN THE STARTING POINT COULD BE FOUND IN THE LINE MINIMIZATION." I have also changed from using bash to using dash and neither seem to make a difference. Anyone have advice as to what this issue might be?
