FF v.7.1.G , LINUX (MPICH), fully statically linked, optimized for... XEON is running on a 8 processor/16GB shared memory machine.


The execution line:
jritchie@bethe:~/ffgamess firefly -i EXAM01.INP -o test.out -r -f /home/jritchie/ffgamess /home/jritchie/ffgamess/1 -np 2
jritchie@bethe:~/ffgamess jritchie@bethe:~/ffgamess ls /home/jritchie/ffgamess/1
jritchie@bethe:~/ffgamess
Doesn't give any erros and produces test.out,  a few lines of which are:

My questions are: Did the job run in parallel ?  How can I tell (....RUNNING IN SERIAL MODE looks suspicous)?
If it didn't run in parallel, what do I need to do to get it to do so?
