hello,

this may be the wrong place to ask, however i did not see
a better one.

the problem i have and ask help for is that i'd like to run
SCALAPACK on a power2 architecture and run into problems.

when i try to test xslu for 4 nodes i always end up with

====================
rm_l_0_33517:  p4_error: interrupt SIGINT: 2
 - Error in MPI_RECV : Invalid datatype argument
 [1] Aborting program!
====================

what i'm using is

argonne mpi 1.0.12 (i'll grade up these days)
scalapack 1.0 (will get the new version)
mpiblacs 1.0 (is there a newer version)

if anyone has seen a similar problem and has found ways
to overcome it - or if anyone has installed and tested
scalapack succesfully on the power2 architecture i'd be
happy to hear from that per e-mail.
it may only be a version problem. however, if it's more
i probably have to think about my project strategy.

regards

michael
