SuperLU

Hermes currently supports two versions of the SuperLU library - the sequential one and the multithreaded one. Support for the MPI version will be added in the future. Please visit http://crd.lbl.gov/~xiaoye/SuperLU/ for more information about the library.

Linux

Using standard Debian packages

Install the libsuperlu3 and libsuperlu3-dev packages. In Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper) or newer, you can use the Synaptic package manager for that, or type:

sudo apt-get install libsuperlu3 libsuperlu3-dev

Now go to the directory with Hermes. Create the file CMake.vars with the following lines (or append to the existing one):

set(WITH_SUPERLU YES)
set(SUPERLU_ROOT ~/solvers/superlu_mt) #(or your own installation destination)
set(SUPERLU_MT   NO)

Finally execute:

rm CMakeCache.txt
cmake .
make

Using SUPERLU in Hermes

You may now select SOLVER_SUPERLU as the matrix solver for your finite element problem, as detailed in the Poisson tutorial, or use it just to solve a standalone matrix problem
