Problem with Quantum DLT V4 tape drive
Hello,
I have a problem with a Quantum DLT V4 tape drive on a Debian Sarge
system with kernel 2.6.16-2-686-smp. The streamer is correctly detected
during start up, but it is not possible to write anything to the tape. I
will always get a "Device or resource busy" error message.
Here comes some debug output:
_dmesg_
