grid settings

Hello list,

I am trying to get familiar with cp2k and wrote a very simple H_2 DFT
input file. I compare the result with gamess. I somehow can't seem to
get both into very good agreement. I suspect that this is a grid issue
within cp2k since the total electron charge is not very close to 2.
Could someone on this list give me a hint as to what I need to change
in the input file to get better answers?

Thanks already,

nick
