[Pw_forum] Calculations for Au

Dear all,

I'm trying to perform a scf calculation for Au and I obtained a value  
of Fermi Energy about ~16 eV, and in the literature I found this value  
like ~5.5 eV. What should be causing this discrepancy?

Another problem occur when I use pseudopotentials generated with PWGGA  
xc. The error is: "Some wfcs were lost".

I will appreciate the suggestions.

Best regards,

leandro
