    keyword=fastbus busy hanging up

    We had a problem for awhile that the fastbus busy did not
    transmit from the R-arm fastbus crate to the trigger supervisor
    on the L-arm, but this was fixed (problem with twinax cable).
    Now, we have the extreme bad luck that the other fastbus
    crate (L-arm) has its busy stuck at 'true'. This hangs up DAQ.
    Tried: 1) power cycle fastbus crate; 2) swap cable; 3) swap the
    card on back of fastbus crate. Nothing works. For now I leave
    this busy signal unplugged. Its probably ok for cosmics. I will
    need to change over to unbuffered mode, until I get some good
    idea of how to fix this crazy problem. I will come back later tonight
    to swap to unbuffered mode, or whatever.
