Mulliken charge problem

I have tested different Basis Sets. With confined Basis Sets the
problem becomes better but there is a difference anymore.
With an augment Basis Set I get the following error:

 *** 08:35:30 ERRORL2 in cp_fm_cholesky:cp_fm_cholesky_decompose
err=-300   ***
 *** condition FAILED at line 92

I have reada about linear dependences in the BASIS SET. Can somebody
explain me what this means?
thanks
Oliver
