 Hi,

 I had encountered the same problem with Xcrysden. It occurs because of
change in output format for the latest version.
 Earlier versions will print only relaxed atomic positions (x, y  and z
coords), but in 4.0 version the relaxed positions are followed by input
parameters specified in input file for relaxing atoms (0 or 1). Hence
Xcrysden cannot read these and shows only initial configuration which is
in usual format.

 If you remove extra three no.s in each atomic positions from the output
file, it works fine.
