I was going through those pages a bit this morning and had a few questions..;
Firstly, at the Configuration Notes it says I should be able to get the changer value with modprobe sg. That command returns nothing; which doesn't seem right? But if I do a modprobe sg -l then I get: /lib/modules/2.6.8-24-default/kernel/drivers/scsi/sg.ko So have I got the right module loaded for sg devices? Secondly, what does -status do? what is the param you have to pass it? Thirdly, around the changerident section, it lists Faststor DLT which is what I run. It's listed as an "other value". Does that mean chg-scsi supports my drive w/o the changerident argument? Whenever I try to add it, chg-scsi just gets cross at me. Thanks for any help. I'm getting so close to this tape drive working that I'm almost sick; chg-scsi will now pick a tape and load it! :} But it still segfaults on -scan, and it will "eject" the tape but doesn't know how to unload it (I have to follow up with mtx -f /dev/sg1 unload) Good weekend to everyone..! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
