dear Paolo,
  
When I used a symmetry-conservin algorithm,  cell_dynamics = 'damp-w' ,
I still met the same error :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
from checkallsym : error #         3
     not orthogonal operation
------------------------------------------------------------------------
And when using  "nosym = .true.", I met a warning:
       iteration #  1     ecut=    40.00 Ry     beta=0.70
     Davidson diagonalization with overlap

  Now I don't know how to  optimize lattice constant of the bulk graphite. 
  Please give me some help.thanks!
