Okay, I am only responding about pmemd here, and will leave the rest to folks who have actually used open-mpi. If, in the amber/src/pmemd dir, you enter ./configure -help, you will note that open-mpi is not a supported option for pmemd, so I am not sure how you built your config.h for pmemd. However, a sane approach, given the lack of open-mpi support would be to configure for linux64_opteron, pgf90, and mpich2, and THEN go back and hack the config.h to get the mpi libraries right. You can probably make a good guess on the mpi libraries looking at sander; you should not need the f90 interface libraries, and I would probably just try changing -lmpich to -lmpi first. What I don't know about is if libmpi in open-mpi has a bunch of other dependencies. Support for open-mpi is not included with pmemd because it was not very thoroughly documented at time of release - if I recollect there was just a README and no manual. This seemed a little too close to the bleeding edge for me to support in pmemd. I tend to try to support stuff that is known to be fast and stable, and try to let other folks do the alpha/beta testing of other people's code :-) Hope this helps.

  Dear all,
          CPU: AMD opeteron Linux86-64
           I used the following command to configure the open-mpi-1.0.2.
          ./configure --prefix=/home/ytang/gdata/whli/openmpi CC=pgcc CXX=pgCC F90=pgf90 --with-openib
         and set environment variables in .bashrc as follows:
             export MPI_HOME=/home/ytang/gdata/whli/openmpi
            export PATH=$MPI_HOME/bin:$PATH
            export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$MPI_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

  In the ~openmpi/lib directory:
  libmca_common_sm.la libmpi_cxx.la libmpi_f90.a libmpi.so.0.0.0 libopal.so.0.0.0 liborte.so.0.0.0
  libmca_common_sm.so libmpi_cxx.so libmpi.la libopal.la liborte.la mpi_kinds.mod
  libmca_common_sm.so.0 libmpi_cxx.so.0 libmpi.so libopal.so liborte.so mpi.mod
  libmca_common_sm.so.0.0.0 libmpi_cxx.so.0.0.0 libmpi.so.0 libopal.so.0 liborte.so.0 openmpi
   
    
  For PMEMD module:

  For sander module:

   ../lmod/lmod.a ../lapack/lapack.a ../blas/blas.a \
  ../lib/nxtsec.o ../lib/sys.a -L/home/ytang/gdata/whli/openmpi/lib -lmpi_f90 -lmpi -lorte -lopal -lutil -lnsl -lpthread -ldl -Wl,--export-dynamic -lm -lutil -lnsl -lpthread -ldl
  /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /home/ytang/gdata/whli/openmpi/lib/libmpi_f90.a when searching for -lmpi_f90
  /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmpi_f90
  make[1]: *** [sander.MPI] Error 2
  make[1]: Leaving directory `/gdata/lun8/ytang/whli/amber9/src/sander'
  make: *** [parallel] Error 2

  I know it must be something wrong with the installation of open-mpi, but I don't know where it is.

  Could you please give me some advice?
