Hey David/Beowulf Gang,
Sorry for your PVM woes, but please try the latest "patch pre-release"
version of PVM, 3.4.5+7 available at:
http://www.csm.ornl.gov/~kohl/PVM/pvm3.4.5+7.tar.gz
This likely fixes many recent problems, especially on 64-bit arches.
(Yeah, I know, another full release would be handy sometime... :-})
In the future, please don't hesitate to email:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
with any PVM-related questions or concerns.
We're unfunded but not dead yet... :)
All the Best,
Jim
