[Wien] 'LAPW2: semicore band-ranges too large error' for spin-orbit calculation

[Peter Blaha]

I just did a crude calculation with only 1 k-point. initso (with all 
defaults only) and then run -i 1 -so

No problem.
----------------------------

Somewhere these eigenvalues at -7 and more Ry must come from.

The scf1 (output1 files show as expected the lowest eigenvalues around 
-4 Ry originating from Cd-4p states.

Your outputso files show for ALL k-points eigenvalues starting at -9 Ry ??

Mine don't do this, but as expected they split into -4.4 and -3.9 (3/2 - 
1/2 splitting like in the free atom.

-----------
I suggest you try again from scratch.
