Re: [AMBER] umbrella sampling

Dear Elisa et al,

Please refer to the following webpage which maintains an up to date list
of what is and isn't supported with the GPU code:

http://ambermd.org/gpus/

Specifically:

12) nmropt = 1 .and. For n=1,4; iat(n) < 0The GPU code does not currently
support the use of COM simulations.


An update will be coming soon that will add Jarzynski support and GBSA
support (as well as CUDA 5.0 and some additional bug fixes and tweaks).
COM restraints are next on the list to be added but it may take a while.

Until then I would suggest using pmemd.MPI running on CPUs which should
support center of mass restraints.

All the best
Ross
