ok, you can download a cpmd compatible pt pseudo 
(actually two) from 
http://cvs.berlios.de/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/cp2k/potentials/Goedecker/cpmd/pbe/

if you search through the mailing list archive, you'll also
find several mails from people that have used other platinum
psps. perhaps you can contact one of them, in case you need
something else/specific.

whether you need the semicore (q18) or can get away with the 
regular (q10) pseudo depends on your particular system.
if you want a recommendation on that, you have to tell us,
what you plan to do. ;-)

cheers,
   axel.
