I installed my parport Ditto Easy3200 Tape drive on dual-bootable laptop
under windows to see if could get an idea of what system resources the
drive was using. The tape worked but this angle turned out to not
produce any information in the area of system resources. So at a
minimum at least I know the parallel port is set correctly and that the
tape drive worked with this PC.
So I rebooted back to linux on this laptop and rebuilt and installed
ftape. I get the same results as before.
ftmt: /dev/qft0: Device not configured
The modules are loaded, I have verified that.
Does anybody reading this mailing list have any suggestions on what to
try or comments on their experience using ftape and Iomega Ditto
drives? Does anybody even read this mailing list? I haven't seen a
single response to any of my postings.
please help,
Mike
