Dear Molpro users,

I have a question about Molpro 2009.1 running on the phenom 9850 CPU. I
am trying to run Molpro 2009.1 (precompiled version) on a Linux box
(Suse 11.2, Phenom(tm) 9850 CPU (details below), 8GB mem). The box is
stable under hardware test (memory and cpu test). But when running
molpro in parallel, the box freezes. I checked the molpro output, it
says the CPU is P4.

Does anyone successfully run molpro 2009.1 on the phenom 9850 CPU? How
should I diagnose the problem?

Thanks in advance,
