Segmentation fault is typical error generated by diagonalization routines where there is insufficient amount of memory. In the example above calculations were executed with p=1 and q=1 parameters. In this case it was sufficient to set in input file

p                       2
q                       2

to solve the problem. For more info see Memory usage of st-wslda.
