[Geoqus] question about Abaqus on linux

Abaqus 6.5-2 (64-bit for LINUX) is running on a dual-processor Opteron
workstation (2.4 GHz, 2 x 6 GByte RAM, 70 GByte harddisk) with SuSE 9.0.
Until now we had no problems running Abaqus/Standard and Abaqus/CAE.
Abaqus 6.4 (32-bit) was also running trouble-free with SuSE 9.0. Instead
of SuSE 9.1 we have chosen SuSE 9.0 for both Abaqus versions because
ABAQUS could not guarantee a save running on SuSE 9.1. Thus, we didn't
try 9.1.

In contrary to our problems installing Abaqus 6.4, 6.5-2 was easy
to handle, as it is in general compared to former versions.

As Kasper wrote last week, I did not use user subroutines and
therefore did not bother with compiler issues yet.

Best regards from Göttingen,

Holger
