[Wien] Limit of RmtKmax

Dear Wien2k Users,

How to check if my calculations are beyond "approximate numerical linear dependency"? The below calculations were converged with the criterion -ec 0.000001 and -cc 0.000001 on a fine mesh k-point to determine a good Fermi level energy accuracy (simple mettalic 3D compound cointaining Y and Al elements). No warning in scf file is appeared. From RKmax>=10 onwards the change in energy differences is smaller than 0.0002 Ry, hovewer I have problems with convergation the value of the Fermi Energy. What should I do to obtain better accuracy of EF?

 limit due to "approximate numerical linear dependency"
