[petsc-dev] chebychev method

Currently, the man page for
chebychev<http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-dev/docs/manualpages/KSP/KSPCHEBYSHEV.html>states
that it will only work for symmetric positive (semi-)definite
systems, but the chebychev code has support for nonsymmetric systems using
the hybrid approach. Is the hybrid branch still a work in progress?
Who can give me some quick hints on how to work with it?

I wish to make Chebychev the default KSP for the coarse problem of the
BDDC, and I'd wish to know in which cases it will work or not.

Thanks,
