GROMACS version: 2021.5 GROMACS modification: No Hi there! I’m having trouble installing GROMACS on the LTS version of Ubuntu 24. It seems the issue might be related to CUDA drivers and the compatible compilers, GCC and G++. I’ll provide my system configuration and the errors displayed below: `nvidia-smi` > Fri Nov 8 17:50:09 2024 > ±----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ > | NVIDIA-SMI 560.35.03 Driver Version: 560.35.03 CUDA Version: 12.6 | > |-----------------------------------------±-----------------------±---------------------+ > | GPU Name Persistence-M | Bus-Id Disp.A | Volatile Uncorr.

Hi! A related question was answered in another threads: [New Intel icx and icpx compilers | use of undeclared identifier 'getenv' - #4 by al42and](https://gromacs.bioexcel.eu/t/new-intel-icx-and-icpx-compilers-use-of-undeclared-identifier-getenv/10044/4) You should modify `src/gromacs/utility/flags.h` by adding a new line containing `#include ` at the top of the file, between `#define GMX_UTILITY_FLAGS_H` and `namespace gmx`. Better yet, use newer GROMACS which has this issue fixed, like 2024.4. The 2021.x series is not supported, and newer versions have better performance and less bugs. ---

Thanks a lot Andrey!! I will try this adjustment and suggest we all move to the version of GROMACS you mentioned!!
