I just found what might be a bug in the scsi driver in -stable i sup'ed last
night.

I can only do ONE operation to my tape drive.  After the operation completes,
it ignores all other commands until a reboot.  Normaly inserting another tape
will cause the drive to find BOT marker, this does not even happen.

My hardware (from dmesg):

--------------------------
The tape drive and cdrom are on the internal SCSI bus.  My disk
drives are on the external SCSI bus.

The cdrom works fine, and until last month i beleve that the tape also
worked ok.
When i install a tape drive (tandberg 3820) on the external bus, it is
probed as st0 and the tape drive (tandberg 3660) on the internal SCSI bus 
probes as st1.  Now st0 DOES work, but st1 still only allows one operation.
