==== ScaLAPACK compiler and linker options ==== Strange messages like APPLICATION TERMINATED WITH THE EXIT STRING: Hangup (signal 1) in stdout or MPI error messages in stderr may appear with dynamically linked libraries. Linking ScaLAPACK libraries statically using LIBS = -Wl,--start-group $(MKLPATH)/intel64/libmkl_scalapack_lp64.a $(MKLPATH)/intel64/libmkl_blacs_intelmpi_lp64.a $(MKLPATH)/intel64/libmkl_intel_lp64.a $(MKLPATH)/intel64/libmkl_sequential.a $(MKLPATH)/intel64/libmkl_core.a -static_mpi -Wl,--end-group may overcome these problems.
