Hi,

This worked well on Red Hat 5.1 with PGI compilers and MPICH 1.1.0:

./configure -device=ch_lfshmem -prefix=/usr/local/mpi_pgi -cc=pgcc
-fc=pgf90 -opt=-O3 -L /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/egcs-2.90.27
-cflags=-Muchar -B

You have to modify to fit your needs and configuration the prefix and
the
library path (-L blahblah). I have also tested the newest release of
MPICH
(1.1.2) but also only on RH 5.1 and only with gcc (and it worked well
and
out of the box with both 2.0.34 and 2.2.5 kernels).

Important remark: if you have F77 programs, compile them with pgf90
or g77. pgf77 is, uh, strange.

Hope this helps,

Maciej
