Hi, I am trying to factor a C130, and have found that matsolve is not behaving itself (or, perhaps, the relations I found were not very good). After matsolve...

In my experience, you just need to sieve a little more. In factLat.pl, is maxrelsinff set to 0? If so, that often causes it to stop sieving too early....
