		                        | I get the following error message when i run a TDDFT calculation with CAM-B3LYP for a radical cation 
 "sym_movecs_adapt: no significant component?        0", I am not sure what it means.

		                        | As far as I can see the basis set you are using contains linear dependencies. The code removes those and zeroes the linearly dependent vectors. It seems that the routine that purifies the symmetry of the orbitals gets confused about these zero vectors. I am having a closer look to see where exactly this happens and fix this. |  |

 Great, thanks very much

 Thanks for the patch. But right now I am getting the following memory related error

******************* ARMCI INFO ************************
The application attempted to allocate a shared memory segment of 2273312768 bytes in size. This might be in addition to segments that were allocated succ
esfully previously. The current system configuration does not allow enough shared memory to be allocated to the application.
This is most often caused by:
1) system parameter SHMMAX (largest shared memory segment) being too small or
2) insufficient swap space.
Please ask your system administrator to verify if SHMMAX matches the amount of memory needed by your application and the system has sufficient amount of 
swap space. Most UNIX systems can be easily reconfigured to allow larger shared memory segments,
see http://www.emsl.pnl.gov/docs/global/support.html
In some cases, the problem might be caused by insufficient swap space.
