Subject: Does Anyone Have a Working MACHINE File for Solaris/SPARC?

Hi, fellow Amber users,

I have been trying to compile Amber7 on a Solaris9/SPARC(ultrasparc) with the latest SunONE compilers.
After I changed cc to cc-5.0, which enables successful compiling of ptraj, the file Machine.sparc works until leap/xleap. Leap/xleap is just too stubborn to compile for either Sun compilers or gcc/g77. The compiled sander is slower than expected though. As Sun provides a performance library, including LAPACK/BLAS, I wonder if anyone has tried to link to those libs. I made some setenv changes but they didn't work. I'll be grateful if you could send me your MACHINE file.

Regards,
Ya Chen

P.S.
