VMD

[Francesco Pietra <chiendarret@yahoo.com>]

Is any experience in running VMD on Debian? (VMD is a
graphical interface to molecular dynamics codes, such
as NAMD)

While NAMD seems to have reliable features, reading
release notes for last VMD is discouraging for a
Debian user: compilation was for old versions of
RedHat, notes are only given for Fedora and Suse, the
strong point seems to be Windows.

Nonetheless I am interested in NAMD because it
provides use of CHARMM parameters, so that I have to
try to bear this VMD. What I only hope, is that if
problems are with the basic system, usually Debian has
less problems than most other Linuxes, mostly solved
by soft links to vintage libraries. 

Thanks
