Perhaps you could try the sg_luns utility from the sg3_utils package ( http://www.torque.net/sg ) with either the 2.4 or 2.6 kernel. It should be sent to lun 0 (i.e. the tape drive), for example: sg_luns /dev/st0
[I'm not sure whether st devices support the SG_IO ioctl in lk 2.6.8; they do now. If that fails use the sg_map utility to find the corresponding sg device and apply sg_luns to that sg device.]
It doesn't work with /dev/st0 or /dev/nst0 but either work with /dev/sg1 and /dev/sg2 which are respectively the drive and the changer. But it reports the same things that I reported.
If the sg_luns response shows an offset result for the tape changer (lun 1), then you should be looking to see if HP has new firmware for that tape autoloader.
OK.
I tried to force the kernel to register the LUN 1 (by modifying the scsi_scan.c code) but the kernel crashes...
