No chance of that working until I issue a new update to mtx. I have a C200
and it has a rather severe bug that I have a fix for.
As for not showing up with scsilist that is a separate issue. The C200
driver doesn't create a normal WIN32 device name. So you have to enter the
setupapi Device Interface Name. This is a really long name that is really
ugly and is not supposed to be entered manually. (The intent is a program
enumerates the devices and shows the user the friendly names and then uses
the ugly one internally to open the device. I'll be adding support for
those in the next version of scsilist.
In the meantime you can figure out the name manually, it should be in the
registry at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceClasses\{53f56310-
b6bf-11d0-94f2-00a0c91efb8b}
Under that key will be another key starting with ##?#SBP2#POWERFILE-C200&...
If you strip off the leading ##?# and pass the rest of that keyname as the
device name (in double quotes) it should work. For example on my system the
command is:
mtx -f
"SBP2#POWERFILE-C200&DISC_CHANGER&LUN2#003060f200002832#{53f56310-b6bf-11d0-
94f2-00a0c91efb8b}" status
If you can build the Windows version yourself then I can send you the
updated patch to mtx, otherwise let me know and I can build it for you.
I have fixes to support the Sony VGP-XL1B as well.

Subject: [Bacula-users] windows xp sp2 and powerfile c200 disc changer
Does anyone have experience with configuring bacula to
work with a powerfile unit on win xp?
I can't even get my changer to show up when I use
scsilist.exe although it is listed in the windows
device manager.
All I really need bacula (mtx?) to do is change out
and mount/unmount discs. I can script all the copying
and disc burning, etc.
If you have a powerfile that you can operate with
bacula or any other free/open source software on a win
xp system, please let me know.
Eric
