Hello,

We use the Neo on SL6 (a RHEL rebuild). We have not had problems with

the software end, but we have had some issues with the CameraLink card

under Linux. It seems to work in some slots, but not others. I think

the drivers is sensitive to something like a shared IRQ.

Hi,

We have a Andor Zyla camera, that we plan to control via the existing areaDetector driver for the Andor SDK3 library. However, we're finding that the SDK3 doesn't work on 64-bit RHEL6 (Kernel 2.6.32). I've not had the chance to test the EPICS support yet, as this is purely an Andor issue - their example programs fail to run correctly.

So I'm just wondering if anyone else has an Andor sCMOS camera, that uses SDK3, and has it working under Linux. If so, please could you let us know the distribution and kernel version number?

The camera example programs work on Windows 7 64-bit. So if we can't get it working on Linux that will be our fall back solution.

Cheers,
Matt
