Dear All,
I'm new to abinit and not an expert of cpu architectures.
I'm compiling abinit on my Dual Core AMD Turion 64 bit.
I've a problem in finding the MPI libraries during the configure 
process: I've installed both open-mpi and mpich. The configuration is 
made 
with the switch --enable-mpi=yes --with-mpi-prefix="path of the 
library".
The configure script does not find a usable mpi library but I'm sure 
that the static mpi library (.a) is present in the indicated path.
Moreover I've a general question: is it advantageous to use a 
parallelized code on a single dual core cpu? Or the calculation load 
between the 
two cores is managed internally by the cpu itself?
Thanks a lot!
