problems accessing scsi tape drive.

[Martijn Moret]

Hi,

I'm trying to access a SCSI tape drive DDS-3 on Fedore core 1.
In the messages and dmesg it shows up fine, but I can't run mt command's
on the drive!

When connected to another machine (some controller) but running RH9 the
drive works fine.

Any hints would be nice.
