hi!

i'm probably asking on the wrong place, but maybe... i've got following
problem: if i select some part of the protein (let's say 1 residue) and
want to change the representation to Surf, it doesn't display anything
except following output:

Malloc of zero or illegal length!!
length = 0
Reading 0 atoms..done
Probe radius = 1.400
Constructing solvent-accessible surface ..
Max edge length = 1.200
Malloc of zero or illegal length!!
length = 0
Malloc of zero or illegal length!!
length = 0
Malloc of zero or illegal length!!
length = 0
Total Triangles 0 Total constraints 0
Max Neighbors per atom 0 Average Neighbors per atom nan
Surface construction + writing time 0.00 seconds
done

this repeats for fragments <14 residues (this number differs among
different structures). what more it seems that the output for 14 - 25
residues fragment remains all the time the same, it changes for fragment
of 1 - 26 residues (the numbers vary again among different structures) -
it reports
reading xxx atoms
done

where xxx is same for fragments of (for example) 14 - 25 residues.

could anyone tell me what i'm doing bad?

tia,
lubos
