Re: "Cannot find plugin handler for TVirtualStreamerInfo!"

Hi,

Since you have in your configure line:

     --prefix=/home/ian/Desktop/GATE_ROOT/root

you must finish the build with

     gmake install

also /home/ian/Desktop/GATE_ROOT/root must NOT be the same location as where you extract the source code. We usually recommend that you do not use --prefix (unless you want only one version of root installed on your system ... always at the same place) and instead rely on ROOTSYS (for example set via sourcing the script $ROOTSYS/bin/thisroot.sh

Cheers,
Philippe
