    Followup entry: HV working now
    This morning I worked with Roman Pomatsalyuk (HV GUI author) who logged in from the Ukraine. We found on R-HRS:

    1. The top crate had a bad card in slot 14. This caused the GUI to freeze.

    2. The bottom crate didn't talk to the ahut1 server. Switching to halladaq8 fixed this. I don't know yet what's wrong on ahut1, except the C code does talk to the crate and the Shim script does print out some things. Not clear.

    So, we have succeeded at turning on HV on both crates on R-HRS.

    I also noticed that L-HRS HV was working, without intervention,
    this morning. So the server runs 24/7 there.

    Things to do:

    1. Learn the low-level diagnostics for hardware problem. Roman has
    these tools. It's better than wondering why a GUI freezes.

    2. The GUI is still a bit slow in my opinion. Some optimization or investigation is appropriate. However, it does work.

    3. Fix or replace the ahut1 server so that both crates work on R-HRS.

    4. Write simple, clear instructions for the masses.
