Greetings,
I'm trying to load the "sgen" driver in order to control a tape changer (it sees the tape drive just fine),
but when I do a "modload -p drv/sgen" it replies with a cryptic "No such device or address".
Further checking reveals that it's actually having issues with "misc/scsi".
Here's some more info:

This is currently the 32bit kernel, but I was getting the same behavior on the 64bit kernel.
Is this a bug, or do just have a configuration issue? Please let me know if
there's a workaround, or if you need more information.
your command line appears to be wrong:
farnarkle: $ modinfo |grep -i sgen
farnarkle: $ su root -c ' modload /kernel/drv/amd64/sgen'
Password:
farnarkle: $ modinfo |grep -i sgen
