Re: tape drive decting problem

You need to include the "stape" driver into the kernel.

Hope this helps!

Hi,
Torsten is right, you need to enable the "stape" kernel module to static and it may take a reboot.

HI...
First run
#kcmodule stape
Will give u output something like
Module State Cause
stape unused

Then give
# kcmodule -h stape=static

-h will hold the changes till next reboot.
