I am new to this list - in case this is a well known problem.

I am trying to get ftape working with a Sony Superstation tape drive and am
having problem. The version is ftape v3.04d 25/11/97 running under
RedHat 6.1.  I cannot seem to  access any of the [q]nft[1-3] devices.

Here's a list of my modules:

Module                  Size  Used by
zftape                 59084  -1
st                     24864   0  (autoclean) (unused)
ftape                 105844   0  (autoclean) [zftape]

Here are the errors in dmesg:

[050]  zftape-ctl.c (_zft_open) - ftape_enable failed: -19.
[051] zftape-init.c (zft_open) - _ftape_open failed.
[052]    ftape-ctl.c (ftape_activate_drive) - no tape drive found !.
[053]   ftape-ctl.c (ftape_enable_R7ec0d5d4) - 
ftape_activate_drive(&ftape_status.fti_drive_type) failed: -19.  

Is anyone successfully using this drive? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
bk2
