hi

I am running the Si example given in PWgui-6.1. When I give space group 227
and atomic position 0 0 0 then Xcrysden is showing Simple FCC structure of
Si while withoutspace group number the original file is showing diamond
structure in xcrysden. Also the calculated energy is different. I am giving
here the input file for crystal_sg. Kindly suggest the corrections to
reproduce the results
