I want to get the accurate total energy and DOS. According to the manual, ismear=-5 is the best.but my calculation is in one-dimensional system. Can I use this method?
it always has this error:
WARNING: DENTET: can't reach specified precision
Number of Electrons is NELECT = 335.963061878347
DAV: 33 -0.771314162860E+03 0.20121E+00 -0.15258E-06 6864 0.316E-03BRMIX: very serious problems
the old and the new charge density differ
old charge density: 336.02918 new 335.96307

many thanks!
