Hi,
I found that midas banks can be given an extra 32 bits of zeros when
trying to keep to 32bit boundary on my x86_64.

02 Oct 2007, Konstantin Olchanski, Info, ROODY, ROOTANA updates
|
The ROODY online histogram viewer and the ROOTANA midas analyzer toolkit have been updated to work
with ROOT version 5.16 and tested on Linux (SL4.4) and MacOS (10.4.10/PPC).

06 Sep 2007, Stefan Ritt, Info, Introduction of MIDAS_MAX_EVENT_SIZE
|
We had the problem that different experiments used different MAX_EVENT_SIZE
values (the MEG experiment actually 10 MB!). If each experiment changes the
value in midas.h and accidentally commits it, other experiments are affected.

20 Aug 2007, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Report, how to handle end of run?
|
I am having problems with handling the end-of-run situation in my midas
frontend. I have a device that continuously sends data (over USB) and I read
this data in my "read_event" function.

I had to change the pointer type of mvme_read and mvme_write to (void *) instead
to (mvme_locaddr_t *) to avoid warnings under 64-bit linux. Please adjust your
VME drivers if necessary.
