Hello,
I am running Linux 2.0.36 and I got a weird problem with my SCSI tape
drive. It was working without any problems for like 9 months. :-/
I have the SCSI tape support compiled as a module and when I try e.g. "mt
-f /dev/st0 status" I get the following lines in my syslog:
kernel: Detected scsi tape st0 at scsi1, channel 0, id 6. lun 0
kernel:
kernel: No tape buffers allocated at initialization.
kernel: st: Can't allocate new tape buffer (nbr 0).
kernel: st0: Can't allocate tape buffer.
kernel: st: Unloaded.
Any ideas why it all of a sudden can't allocate the "tape buffer" ?
Harry
