I added the line to /etc/conf.modules and rebooted the machine to make
sure. But I was not able to access the tape drive. dmseg was not showing
any SCSI cards and eventually I reinstalled the whole OS which worked.

When I look at dmesg now it shows the scsi card and the tape drive. What
was I missing ? I want to add more devices later on but dont really
fancy re-installing each time

Watch out when you explain things ... I'm new to Linux
