Hi Marcel,
Get the latest ftape which should be ftape-4.03-pre-2.tar.gz, if I'm
not mistaken. You can find it at:
http://www.math1.rwth-aachen.de/~heine/ftape/
also get ftape-tools-1.07.tar.gs and ftape-4.x-doc-1.03.tar.gz
After installing the above packages and reading the docs re-send us
the relevant /var/log/messages file.
The loading sequence has changed a lot and most people in this group
have upgraded to at least 4.02.
