   Pierre and Hong,

     This may not be fixable. In GASM submatrices lie on overlapping collections of MPI processes thus the -mat_view likely won't work because it is called also on these submatrices. Even if it did work I suspect the entries for the various submatrices would be printed out in unreadable random order.

    Are you intentionally trying to see what the submatrices look like?
