Ftape errors

[Stephen]

Using Ftape 4.03, Linux 2.2.13, Iomega ditto 3200 w/card.

1.  I get 'SIG: sigpending  lied'  messages when I do a  ftmt -f
/dev/qft0 status.  How do I fix this?

2.  Trying to run ftmt from an Xterm under Gnome results in the error
"./ftmt: /dev/qft0: Interrupted system call"      Does Ftape not work
under Xwindows/Gnome or do I have something set up wrong?

TIA
Stephen
