I haven't had any luck yet, but I really appreciate the suggestions.  My 
comments are inline:

No, not that I can distinguish.  I only see a bunch of empty unavailable usb 
devices, such as:
When         Type         Busy     Phys_Id
usb0/1                         empty        unconfigured ok
unavailable  unknown      n        /devices/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/pci1025,[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]:1
...
usb2/8                         empty        unconfigured ok
unavailable  unknown      n        /devices/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/pci1025,[EMAIL 
PROTECTED],2:8

Done.  In the original st.conf file on SXDE, only the name="st" class="scsi" 
target=[{0-6}] lun=0; lines are uncommented.

devfsadm -i doesn't work it wants the numeric ID instead of the st symbolic.  I 
used modinfo to find it:
 Id Loadaddr   Size Info Rev Module Name
185 f9801000  12350 129   1  st (SCSI tape Driver 1.257)

No I don't see it in /var/adm/messages or the output of dmesg, but something is 
telling the tape drive to reset when I boot the computer.
