Hi Markus, > I don't use Ubuntu. But on Debian wheezy (testing) it works with g++ > 4.6.1 and openmpi 1.4.3 Thanks, then it seems to be a special Ubuntu 11.10 bug. and not a g++ 4.6.1 Problem. Because that is not my only problem with with 11.10 I go back to ubuntu 11.04, where everything was fine. Have a nice day, Patrick
