Hello, I've looked at Linux's mt-st package and it seems that it supports many more things that ours... Here is the README ------------------------------------------------------------ This directory contains a mt program for Linux. This mt originates from BSD NET-2. Some Linux SCSI tape-specific ioctls have been added to the original source and the man page has been updated. Although this mt program is tailored for SCSI tape, it can also be used with the QIC-02 driver and hopefully with other Linux tape drivers using the same ioctls (some of the commands may not work with all drivers). The support for controlling of the compression for DATs is experimental. It seem to work with my HP C1533A but may not work with other drives. ------------------------------------------------------------ Is there any chances to have some of these merged in our mt (especially the last part about the DAT) ? in the Sunsite mirrors in system/Backup: -r--r--r-- 1 roberto staff 9977 Sep 15 15:16 mt-st-0.2.tar.gz BTW, I've tried to edit the compression field of the 0x10 page with scsi(8) and the patch Jörg posted for scsi_modes (it hasn't been put in current I think) but this field was not available... -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- The daemon is FREE! -=- roberto@keltia.frmug.fr.net FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 2.2-CURRENT #1: Sun Jan 14 20:23:45 MET 1996
