DLT8000 TAPE DRIVES and DEBIAN?

[Dean Roman <droman@ti.com>]

Hello all,

   I am trying to use a quantum DLT8000 tape drive with my debian
system.  It seems to write 96K and then hangs.  I see a bunch of
input/output errrors .
   Has anybody had any luck with Quantum DLT8000 tape drives, or using
Legato with Debian?

The drive is scsi attached and using the default /dev/nst0 device.  I am
running Debian 2.2 (potato) with kernel 2.2.19.
Is there any special drivers/modules/configurations needed with Quantum
DLT8000?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
    ---Dean.
