Dear Boaz,
  Thank you very much for the heads up on the Surf behavior.
If you would like a better molecular surface program, particularly
for Linux, I recommend that you take a look at Michel Sanner's MSMS
program. MSMS is much faster than Surf, and though it doesn't run
with VMD on Windows yet, we like it a lot on various Unix and MacOS X:

Thanks,
