    Hello,
    I have installed root 3.00.06 on the linux machines.  It is in
    /afs/rhic/opt/brahms/root/root_v3.00.06.  Again, the installation did
    not go smoothly.  I first tried on pii6 and it failed when compiling
    TMySQLRow because it could not convert unsigned int * to ULong_t * from
    mysql_fetch_fields.  I investigated and learned that in /usr/lib/mysql.h
    that mysql_fetch_fields indeed returns unsigned int * on pii6, but on
    pii3 mysql_fetch_fields returns unsigned long *  Hence the error!  I
    looked at dates on the files and learned that mysql.h has a later date
    on pii6 than on pii3.
    
    I also learned that I cannot start mysql from any of the pii's!!!.  The
    mysql daemon does appear to be up though.
    
    Anyway, root is built and starts.  I have not done any tests further
    than that most notably with the mysql interface where the problems
    occured.
    
    Enjoy
    
    Kris
