HP Tape not detect after kernel update

[Dario Lesca]

Hi, After update (FC4 on HP proliant) with new kernel
2.6.13-1.1526_FC4smp the TAPE device is not detected...

# grep -h -E '(Linux version|C7438A)' \
> /var/log/messages.1 /var/log/messages|cut -c 1-70

Oct 13 12:35:00 monster kernel: Linux version 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4smp

Is this a know problem? there is a workaround or I must use a old
kernel?

Many thanks for reply
