I made the changer load the tape from slot 7 into the drive via the control panel on the device. Then I started amflush, and to my surprise, it unloaded a tape and loaded one, and it's now writing to the tape.
For unknown reasons, amtape is working again. After amflush had finished, I preloaded the next tape, and it worked.
I'm still waiting for the vendors support to call back to get the device fixed. They already managed to piss me off. Avoid buying exabyte or other stuff from Fujitsu/Siemens. The laptops they make are slow, the tape changer fails after 2 years, and their support sucks.
They called back and will exchange the device on warranty. It took some time, but one can't complain :)
