[Wien] Fwd: Problem when running LSDA + U

1) do init_lapw as you did so far.
2) run 1 iteration with runsp
3) look in case.dayfile or :log whether a '-c' appears after lapw2.
4) if a -c appears (=complex calculation), then create a case.indmc  
and a case.inorb (not inorbc or whatever) with the proper content (the  
files you sent before seem OK, it's up to you to choose meaningful  
values for U). If there is no -c, then use case.indm and case.inorb.
5) do 'x lapwdm' with exactly the same options you found after lapw2  
in case.dayfile or :log
6) now use runsp to start your scf-cycle.

This procedure is longer than needed, but safe (if you know in advance  
whether you have a complex case or not, you can immediately put the  
files there and go from step 1 directly to 6 -- it will execute orb  
only from the second iteration onwards).
